Hi Jason,
The solution is like others already mentioned. The problem is the
getNextHighestDepth and removeMovieclip unable to remove mc's in too high or
too low levels. How i solve this is to first swapDepths and after that remove.
1. attach at getnexthighestdepth
2. mc.swapDepths(99999); (i use this level always for only this purpose)
3. mc.removeMovieClip
Shuold work like a charm. And no it's not you who iswrong, it's the code :)
Greets, Ben

Subject: [Flashcoders] can't remove a clip attached to root???
Is there a reason that a movie clip attached to _root cannot be removed
using removeMovieClip?
if I do
_root.attachMovie("square", "s", _root.getNextHighestDepth());
then _root.s.removeMovieClip(); does not remove the clip.
However
if I do
mc.attachMovie("square", "s", mc.getNextHighestDepth());
and mc.s.removeMovieClip(); works like a champ.
Flash 8, as 2.0. I am thoroughly stumped.
