I think the issue, is when I try to add a child to a previously
created child. Here is the test code that I have.


                  for ( var i:Number=0;i<result.length;i++){
                                    // CREATE CANVAS //
                                    var newCanvas:Canvas = new Canvas();
                                          newCanvas.percentWidth = 100;
                                          newCanvas.id = "canvas" + i;
                                    var canvasId = newCanvas.id;
                                          parentApplication.closing.mainBox.addChild(newCanvas);
                                    var newLabel:Label = new Label();
                                          newLabel.text = canvasId;
                                          parentApplication.closing.mainBox.canvasId.addChild(newLabel);
                                   

                       
                                    }
