[AS3] XML class problems

[insaneme]

Hi All

Im working on my first AS3 class, but are stocked with a problem.
My idea is to make a xml class, where i gave the url for the xml doc in the flash files.

my class right now look like:

package classes {
 public class xmlClass {
 
  public var xmlMenu:XML;
  public var xmlContent:XML;
  public var url:String;
 
  public function xmlClass(url:String=""){
            var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
   xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, showXML);
   xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest(url));
        }
  public function showXML(e:Event):void {
   trace("XML Loaded");
   XML.ignoreWhitespace = true;
   var xmlMenu:XML = new XML(event.target.data);
   var xmlContent:XML = new XML(event.target.data);  
  }
 
 }
}

And my flash look like

import classes.xmlClass;
var xml:xmlClass = new xmlClass("xml/main.xml");

But i cant get it to work :S

i get the output:
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Event.

I really hope somebody can help!
cheers!

You dont need to put ingnorewhitespace anymore I believe. Also you don't need to redeclare a variable if you already did it at the top of the class.
