    Default Problem with URLLoader

    Hello, I am trying to load an XML from a url into a variable so that I can
    access it in my Flex application. I have this code:
    var myXML:XML = new XML();
    var XML_URL:String =
    "http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos?vq=football+-soccer&orderby=published
    &start-index=11&max-results=10";
    var myXMLURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest(XML_URL);
    var myLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(myXMLURL);
    myLoader.addEventListener("complete", xmlLoaded);

    function xmlLoaded(event:Event):void
    {
    myXML = XML(myLoader.data);
    trace("Data loaded.");
    }

    And the errors I am getting are:
    1120: Access of undefined property myLoader.
    1120: Access of undefined property xmlLoaded.

    I tried importing flex.net.* and I tried making the myLoader variable public,
    all to no avail.. Any ideas?

    var myXML:XML = new XML();
    var XML_URL:String =
    "http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos?vq=football+-soccer&orderby=published
    &start-index=11&max-results=10";
    var myXMLURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest(XML_URL);
    var myLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(myXMLURL);
    myLoader.addEventListener("complete", xmlLoaded);

    function xmlLoaded(event:Event):void
    {
    myXML = XML(myLoader.data);
    trace("Data loaded.");
    }

    This statement: myLoader.addEventListener("complete", xmlLoaded);
    is just floating out in space. You need to put it into a function, perhaps
    make it the event handler for the Application's creationComplete event.
