In the code below--
it looks like in the first function you have MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN associated

I am wondering if you know when to use currentTarget vs target

mouseChildren to false.

The missing .html thing has to be a simple mistake you're not seeing. Have
you tried tracing the value at every point where it gets passed around?

Hi Susan,
The error means that 'e.currentTarget.getChildByName(aChild).text'
dies not exist.
I think the syntax should read e.currentTarget.getChildByName

string)

Personally, I think this is the wrong approach. Dispatch events with
event bubbling or a design pattern like MVC with events instead. You
should not couple your code so tightly to parent/child
