Hi, Sorry, I am a little confused - I may have looked at your question wrong... Your error says "1120: Access of undefined property contactWindow" etc. Where is "contactWindow" created - if you have no variable called contactWindow in the scope of your removerChild function, it will complain

Hi Glen, the problem is not the creation of the window(which is movie clip exported to actionscript), is to removing then in a function. Regards, Gustavo On Jun 3, 2009, at 11:04 AM, Glen Pike wrote: function click(e:MouseEvent):void{var newWindow:AboutUsWindow = new AboutUsWindow()://??addCh

The container would be the stage in that instance, yes. I used it because Stage extends DisplayObjectContainer, and you could use that chunk of code for any DisplayObjectContainer (MovieClip, Sprite) as well. I should also mention that we're talking AS3. --Matt On Tue, Jun 2, 2009 at 10:38 AM, Gu
