Adding to Galleries.xml

Question

I am attempting to use the gallery as a project portfolio for
an architectural firm. Everything about the Gallery itself is
working, but I am attempting to add a description for each gallery
of basic information about the project.
In the galleries.xml, for each project I have created a new
element: <description></description> which I placed
before the <Security></security> and after the
<email></email>.
Next I defined the new variable for dsDescription:
var dsDescription = new
Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("education/{dsGalleries::@base}",
"description");
Where "education" is the actual folder that galleries.xml is
in. In the body html, I defined the div and region:
<div id="description"
spry:region="dsDescription">{@dsDescription}</div>
This is where I get lost. These steps, instead of placing the
description where I have it (just under the thumbnails, in the same
div), simply returns an "Undefined."
Do I need to create an argument for this in gallery.js? If
so, which section should I look in that file for guidance - aka I
imagine that the argument for showing the dsDescription is similar
to showing the thumbnails. Could I just copy and paste that section
and modify it? Or am I way off?
Thanks in advance.

Hi again Winston,
It's me again because my previous answer was a bit wrong.
Since description is not an attribute, there is no need to use the
@ before. the right code is then:
<div id="description"
spry:region="dsDescription">{description}</div>
Also there is no need to declare a new DataSet because
description is already in the dsGalleries DataSet.
All in all, it would be much clearer with an example. I have
made one available here. Test it then have a look at the HTML code
and to the XML file.
