AS3.0 iterating through XML file

Question

I am new to AS3.0 and the new E4X way of working with XML.
I'm trying to loop through a portion of an externally loaded XML
file and display the results. Here is a portion of my XML file:
<amenity id="1">
<title>The Gate House</title>
<feature>Majestic two-level Preserve Neighborhood
Amenity Center</feature>
<feature>Beautiful Gardens and Meandering
Pathways</feature>
<feature>Meeting Activity Room, Theatre Room, Gourmet
Kitchen, Hearth Room, Grand Fireplace</feature>
<feature>Decks and Patios</feature>
<feature>Available to residents for parties, reunions,
weddings, and meetings</feature>
</amenity>
The are other amenities as well. When a user clicks a button,
I want to enumerate all of the features from this particular
amenity. Here is my code to do this (the code associated with the
listener for the button):
function btnClick(eventObject) {
var mc:MovieClip=eventObject.target
var num:String = mc.name.replace("btn","")
var xmlAmenity:XMLList = myXML.amenity.(@id==num)
for each (var prop:XML in xmlAmenity) {
trace (prop.feature);
Basically the button that calls this is btn1, so the num
variable ends up being 1. myXML is a global variable into which the
external XML file has already been loaded. It then uses the num
variable to assign the amenity with an id if 1 to the xmlAmenity
variable as an XMLList. Everything works just grand except for the
fact that the trace produces the following:
<feature>Majestic two-level Preserve Neighborhood
Amenity Center</feature>
<feature>Beautiful Gardens and Meandering
Pathways</feature>
<feature>Meeting Activity Room, Theatre Room, Gourmet
Kitchen, Hearth Room, Grand Fireplace</feature>
<feature>Decks and Patios</feature>
<feature>Available to residents for parties, reunions,
weddings, and meetings</feature>
I don't want the tags, just what's inside them. Is there some
property I need to use (something like prop.feature.contents) or am
I going about this the wrong way entirely? I suppose I could
restructure my XML file to put the contents of the feature tag in
an attribute called description and then trace the attribute with
prop.feature.@description, but I'd kind of like to know how to
access the text inside the open and close of the tag. If I access
one directly (something like myXML.amenity.(@id==num).feature[0])
then it works just fine, I just can't seem to figure it out in a
loop. I suppose I could increment a variable and do something like
trace(myXML.amenity.(@id==num).feature[x]), but there must be a
better way.

Goodness sakes, that was a long post for a quick answer I
just figured out:
My loop should read like this:
for each (var prop:String in xmlAmenity.feature) {
trace (prop);
The key was enumerating through each xmlAmenity.feature, not
xmlAmenity. Of course, if there's a better way, I'm all
ears...
