The way you had your code, the Child class will never receive the killingFocus call. Add a Delegate within the Mother Class to put the onKillFocus event into scope with Child... import mx.utils.Delegate; class Mother extends MovieClip { public var txt:TextField; public function Mother

You might be aware of this, but just an FYI, if you're concerned about attributes being order specific.

All you need to do is set the nodeValue rather than access it. var trial_xml:XML = new XML("This is a category"); trace(trial_xml.firstChild.firstChild.firstChild.nodeValue); trial_xml.firstChild.firstChild.firstChild.nodeValue = "This is a NEW category"; trace(trial_xml.firstChild.firstChild.firs
