hmmm - i'm a little stuck on this

i'm trying to create a pop-up (will tween but i want to get it working first) but i want it to kill any previous one that's up - how would i go about this please?

here's my current code:
CODE
                private function createEventList(pbList_xl:XMLList):void
                {
if (this.contains(eventList)) removeChild(eventList); // remove previous eventList if it's available - this is the bit that needs fixing
                        var listLength:int              = pbList_xl.length();
                        var listentryHeight:int = 15;
                        var listHeight:int              = listLength * 
listentryHeight;
                        var listWidth:int               = 50;
var mousePoint:Point = new Point(root.mouseX, root.mouseY); // will tween from this point to a central point on the stage
                        
                        var eventList:Sprite = new Sprite();
                        eventList.graphics.beginFill(commonGrey, 1);
                        eventList.graphics.drawRoundRect(0, 0, listWidth, 
listHeight, 10);
                        eventList.x = mousePoint.x;
                        eventList.y = mousePoint.y;
                        
                        addChild(eventList);
                }
/CODE

hope you can help
