I can't find any documentation on the error "The index of a child element is out of range."

Here's my code:

Code:
 <cffile action="Read" file="C:\inetpub\[URL unfurl="true"]wwwroot\ammarine\xml\inventory#dateformat(NOW(),"MM_DD_YY")#.xml"[/URL] variable="readText"> 

<!--- Create a new ColdFusion XML document object --->
<cfxml variable="XMLFile">
  <cfoutput>#readText#</cfoutput>
</cfxml>

<cfset medianodes ArrayLen(XMLFile.open_marine.broker.adverts.advert.advert_media.XmlChildren) />

<cfdump var="#medianodes#">
<cfset adverts = ArrayLen(XMLFile.open_marine.broker.adverts.XmlChildren) />
<cfloop from="1" to="#adverts#" index="i">
<cfoutput>
<b>Reference ID</b> #XMLFile.open_marine.broker.adverts.advert[i].xmlAttributes.ref#<br><br>
</cfoutput>
<cfloop from="1" to="#medianodes#" index="j">
<cfoutput>
<!---
<cfquery name="deletemedia" datasource="#datasource#">
DELETE FROM Listing_Photos
</cfquery>	
<cfquery name="inertmedia" datasource="#datasource#">
Insert Into Listing_Photos(pho_lrg,lis_id)
Values('#XMLFile.open_marine.broker.adverts.advert[i].advert_media.media[j].xmlText#','#XMLFile.open_marine.broker.adverts.advert[i].xmlAttributes.ref#')
</cfquery>
--->
<b>media</b> #XMLFile.open_marine.broker.adverts.advert[i].advert_media.media[j].xmlText#<br><br>
 </cfoutput> 
</cfloop>
</cfloop>

When I run it I get the following error:

Pulling my hair out! I appreciate any help i can get.
 
Disregard I fixed it. I was setting media node outside of the loop and therefor was not getting a proper count for the index.
