When porting from AS2, you might find it more direct to use XMLDocument instead of XML. This behaves exactly like the AS2 XML object. Having said that, I tried your code and it seemed to work (I assumed where you put node.childIndex() it was a typo and you meant to write

yeah, typo (copied code without changing the names to make any sense in the context of this post). If that code is working, I may have a more subtle bug working somewhere...I'm going to guess that it may be from running a filter and setting the XMLList directly to an XML object -- Either way,

Dave, One thing, though. The documentation states that you absolutely must remove ALL references inside the swf, including timers, enter frame listeners, stop playback of sounds, etc., basically do a complete cleanup, before you can even remove a loaded swf. The issue that Grant brings up

This behaviour can not emulated precisely because there is no way for us to set the target and currentTarget properties. This is done by internal EventDispatcher code. The EventDispatcher code works something like this: - check if the target property of the event has been set, if not set it -
