Re: [Flashcoders] Error 1009
In general, when you really, really think your code is ok (which is probably a lot less often than you initially think), there might be issues with running the code that might cause an error. Some other things you can try: 1. Make sure all your AS files have been saved so you are actually running your latest code and not the previous saved version. 2. Go to control and select Delete ASO Files 3. Make sure there aren't any odd invisible characters can get into your code from cutting and pasting and this cleanses your code. Copy your text from your script and paste into a simple text editor and then paste back into your script editor. 4. Close and restart Flash.

Another option: function loadXML(dfile:String,arg1:Object,arg2:Array):void { urlLoader.load(new URLRequest(dfile)); urlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, function(e:Event):void { parseXml(e,arg1,arg2); }); } function parseXML(e:Event,arg1:Object,arg2:Array):void { xmlFile:new XML(e.target.data); totalBars = xmlFile.children().length(); } This method has a drawback (and is usually frowned upon) because you cannot remove the listener.

And please bear in mind what I wrote earlier, about the other fla/*.as file starting with a splash page then going to the regular html page, which is the reason I sent that html code.

The Bitmap class does not extend InteractiveDisplayObject, so you need to stick it in something that does. Just stick it in a Sprite. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
