Reposition a movieclip on stage with coordinates from an xml

Question

Hello i am new to this forum, and kinda a beginner with actionscript. what i'm trying to do is reposition a movieclip already with the coordinates that will be in an XML file on my server. But so far no luck.
This is what i have for AS3
var my_x:Number;
var my_y:Number;
var myCoord:XML;
sample_mc.x = my_x;
sample_mc.y = my_y;
var myXMLLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
myXMLLoader.load(new URLRequest("coords.xml"));
myXMLLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, processXML);
function processXML (e:Event):void{
var myXML:XML = new XML(e.target.data);
myCoord = myXML.position.pos1;
my_x = myCoord.@XPOSITION;
my_y = myCoord.@YPOSITION;
And the XML file
< position>
< pos1 XPOSITION="100" YPOSITION="55">
< /pos1>
< /position>
let me know if anyone can correct what i'm doing wrong, please.

Answer 1

still no prevail, this is now what i got so far
AS3
var my_x:Number;
var my_y:Number;
var myCoord:XML;
var myXMLLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
myXMLLoader.load(new URLRequest("coords.xml"));
myXMLLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, processXML);
function processXML (e:Event):void{
    var myXML:XML = new XML(e.target.data);
    myCoord = myXML.pos1;
    sample_mc.x = my_x = Number(myCoord.@XPOSITION);
    sample_mc.y = my_y = Number(myCoord.@YPOSITION);
and the XML
< position>
< pos1 XPOSITION="100" YPOSITION="55">< /pos1>
< /position>
i know i'm just a beginner with AS but i really thought this was something simple. do i have obvious errors.
