Actually this is no lockroot problem, like I thought it was for a moment.
A friend told me it might be that but after a little thinking its clear that
it isn´t . cause "this" gets the same movieclip. it is then really weird
for me why does it returns different number of children ....
ok
i´ve solved the problem.
this function was called by the "top.swf" timeline as: infoBox.intro();
when running top.swf ok. but when running preloader.swf that will load
top.swf, it didn´t work.
What is the problem in calling a function (from main time line of swf Y)
that is in a movieclipZ ( that´s inside the maintime line of Y), and then
have a swf X loading the swf Y??
Thanks!
