Thanks for the reply, Ian.  I did change the order, but everything still
stops.  I tried to observe the flow with a timeout, and what it does is
trace "Start A" and "Start B" really quickly, then everything delays,
then when the xml is loaded, the movie "works" again, and the other
trace statement starts to happen.  Shouldn't the interval be firing even
while the XML is in the loading process?

function timeTest():Void {
        trace(Math.random());
}
function setDefaultPanels(documentType:String,
documentLanguage:String):Void {
        _root.attachMovie("loading", "loading", 10);
        xmlData = new XML();
        xmlData.onLoad = function(success:Boolean):Void  {
                // do stuff
                _root.loadingGraphic.removeMovieClip();
        };
        trace("start A");
        xmlData.load("stuff.xml"));
        trace("start B");
        setInterval(_root.ui, "timeTest", 10);
}
