might be a problem with the URL.
1. Make sure that the ../xml folder is in the WWW folder of ur server, not
above it.
or
2. Try doing this:
var urlString:String = _root._url;
urlString = urlString.substr(0,urlString.lastIndexOf("/"));
urlString = urlString.substr(0,urlString.lastIndexOf("/") + 1);
urlString = urlString.concat("xml/menu.xml")
menuInfoXML = urlString;
If it works, you may want to refactor all the statements above and make the
code optimal.

I've just elaborated in soo many statements, just in case you dont
understand.
