Hi list...

For some strange reason (and I mean REALLY strange), the second statement below 
depends on the first statement.  As far as I can tell, the two lines have 
nothing to do with each other.  When c runs, clickedOne returns an XMLList.  
When c is commented out, clickedOne returns null.

var c:XMLList = topicData[0].descendants(*).(hasOwnProperty(@title)  @title == 
String(u[info][text]));
var clickedOne:XMLList = topicData[0].asset.(hasOwnProperty(@title)  (@title == 
String(u[info][text])));

Could it somehow be that initializing var c creates something that's next 
needed for the var clickedOne to evaluate properly?



I can't see any reason how this should happen. But my gut instinct says 
that you should decompile the output and see how the generated loops 
look like.

Hi Henrik...

Thanks for responding.  What do you mean by decompile the output?  How would I 
do that?

He means use a .swf decompiler application to see what the resulting code looks 
like that your Actionscript compiler generated. Here's a pretty good and free 
one:

I agree with the others, I don't see anything wrong with your code.  Is there 
some other dependency in your app you're maybe not accounting for?  Very odd 
bug. On paper, doesn't make sense.

One options might be that your .swf is not getting the updated versions of your 
class.  Might try either deleting ASO files or bringing your classes into a 
fresh .fla (if you're using Flash Pro).
