Yes you can :-)
But in this case, a warning (not an error) kept showing up that changes to the
value that was bound to the title of the panel would
not be 'spotted'.
I think this means that in order to do some kind of dynamic binding, a data
source is required that emits (modelChanged?) events (or
something in that direction).
I just kind of worked around it by using a variable (panelTitle) instead of
some node (name) nested inside an xml strucure.
I'm pretty sure there's a way to use {myXML.day[0].name} as the title value
(and not get any warnings), but I'm not that smart yet,
hehe..

Ah - cool, thanks. That worked. So I learned something I didn't know
about mxml - which probably should have been obvious to me - I cannot
use Actionscript 3 outside of a <mx:Script> tag - only public variables
created by the actionscript within the tag. So you cannot use
actionscript objects like object.object.property in other mxml tags, you
have to make them a single variable like your code below?
>> panelTitle = myXML.day[0].name;
>><mx:Panel title="{panelTitle}" width="300" height="200"/>
Thanks for the help. I suppose then you cannot use dot syntax on
actionscript objects outside of a script tag. Only single references
are allowed...
