In actionscript, you cannot reference a movie until it is loaded. Code to work around that (for loadmovienum):

function preloadLevel() {
    if (_level5 != undefined) {
        trace("level 5 loaded");
        delete this.onEnterFrame;
    }
}
_root.onEnterFrame = preloadLevel;
loadMovieNum("external.swf", 5); // load something into level 5
</pre>

Code for XML:
<verbatim>
// Create new XML object
SP_XML = new XML();
SP_XML.ignoreWhite = true;
//  load the XML data - the gate will take care of the
// location_id, all that jazz.
//SP_XML.load("/acc/link/loc/view/sp/xml/");
SP_XML.load("/main/swf/sample_space_plan.xml");
// Render the space plan - load the SWF movies and
// arrange them as necessary.
//SP_XML.onLoad = renderSpacePlan;
SP_XML.onLoad = function(success:Boolean) {
	if (success) {
		space_plan_id = this.firstChild.attributes.id;
		trace("id"+space_plan_id);
		// Set array SpEquipment to the equipment arrays.
		SpEquipment = this.firstChild.childNodes;
		//loadMovieNum("/acc/link/loc/sp_server/&location_space_plan_id="+space_plan_id, 0);
		//loadMovieNum("/acc/link/types/symbol_server/&equipment_type_symbol_id=3",2);
		for (var i = 0; i<SpEquipment.length; i++) {
			asset_x = SpEquipment[i].attributes.x;
			asset_y = SpEquipment[i].attributes.y;
			asset_type_id = SpEquipment[i].attributes.asset_type;
			j=i+2;
			//_root.createEmptyMovieClip("eqp"+j, j);
			_root.eqp.duplicateMovieClip("eqp"+j, j);
			_root["eqp"+j]._onClic
			_root["eqp"+j]._x = asset_x;
			_root["eqp"+j]._y = asset_y;
			_root["eqp"+j].loadMovie("/acc/link/types/symbol_server/&equipment_type_symbol_id=" + asset_type_id);
			//_root["eqp"+j].loadMovie("/main/swf/kiosk.swf");
		}
	} else {
		trace("xml failed to load.");
	}
};
_root.eqp.onLoad = function(success:Boolean) {
	if (success) {
		duplicateMovieClip(_root.eqp, "eqp2", 3);
		_root.eqp2._x = 65;
	}
};
// this sucks
function preloadLevel() {
	//Assuming a loop needs to be run here to evaluate each level load status!
	//Definitely want a "Now constructing the space plan... please stand by screen."
	if (_level2 != undefined) {
		_level2._x = 150;
		_level2._y = 125;
		_level2._rotation = 45;
		newclip = duplicateMovieClip(_level2, blah, 33);
		newclip._x = 45;
		delete this.onEnterFrame;
	}
}
_root.onEnterFrame = preloadLevel;
