ok so I when I click the bt1 I want it to make the home_text visible and remove all of the movie clips within the CreateXMLGallery function. But when I do gallery.removeMovieClip() it only deletes the gallery and none of the other movie clips that are created within the gallery. Any ideas why? here is the code.
stop();
