Yes I sent that to the wish list, to make AS4 fairer. ;-)
Did you try the quotes?

Hi Susan,
The error means that 'e.currentTarget.getChildByName(aChild).text'
dies not
exist.
But it does too exist! Not fair! :(
I think the syntax should read
e.currentTarget.getChildByName("aChild").text (quotes around
aChild as the
name of an object is a string)
That made sense, but it still threw the same error. So I tried this:
trace(e.currentTarget.numChildren);
and that, too, threw the same error, collaborating with your
evaluation.
However, I have these lines in the code that calls the function
wherein the
trace is defined:
mySprite.addChild(aChild);
addChild(mySprite);
so clearly, mySprite, which is the currentTarget:
mySprite.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, onMouseOverHandler);
does indeed have a child. (This is beginning to remind me of certain
deadbeat fathers who divorce their wives and don't pay alimony
lol.) What
do?
Susan
