My xml file looks like this:
<bottle>
<brand>10 Cane</brand>
<type>Rum</type>
<subtype>White</subtype>
<description>the description</description>
<image>assets/pictures/10cane_rum.png</image>
<tier>1</tier>
</bottle>
Basically, i have a lot of <bottle> tags with all their relevant
information stored in the same manner, and the image appears on the
tileList, so when I click on each image I want it to open up a popup
with the description etc.
