This should work:

group.getChildByName("page1").width

Hi all,



Wondering if anyone can help me with a problem that's left me scratching my
head!



Basically I have a main movieclip (group) and then several other movieclips
inside it (page[1-6]).



I was thinking I could access them like this group.page1, group.page2 and
so
on. However it is not working for me.



Here is some stripped down sample code, obviously the moviclips have
content
rather than just being blank:



///////////////////////////////////////////////////

var group:MovieClip       = new MovieClip();

addChild(group);



var pages:Object              = new Object();

pages["page1"]                = new MovieClip();

pages["page2"]                = new MovieClip();

pages["page3"]                = new MovieClip();

pages["page4"]                = new MovieClip();

pages["page5"]                = new MovieClip();

pages["page6"]                = new MovieClip();



for each (var page:MovieClip in pages)

{

               group.addChild(page);

}



group.page1.width         = 200;    // [Fault] exception,
information=TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no
properties. Fault, initScene() at Main.as:103

////////////////////////////////////////////////////



So I get this error when trying to access the width of page1 inside group:
[Fault] exception, information=TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined
and has no properties. Fault, initScene() at Main.as:103



Any ideas how I can access the page movieclips within the group movieclip?



Thanks!

Dav
