script for Google Maps help

[kaZ8Teen]

I just started using Flex to create a map with markers on it. The markers are being loaded from an XML file. But they aren't loading. I'm also getting this error.


1013: The private attribute may be used only on class property definitions.

Referring to...

private function goGeocode(event:Event):void {

Entire code below. So, I need help loading the XML data and clearing the error. Any takers? Any help appreciated!

Looks like you are defining the functions loadXML, createMarker and goGeocode within the xmlLoader function which is not allowed AFAIK.
