I am trying to tailor Kirupa.com’s “News Ticker” (http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/newsticker.htm)for our website. I am also trying to learn Flash Pro 8 on the fly. The area I have to work with forces me to have the information on three lines. I have 3 movie clips set up for the lines of text. I can set up the index position after childnotes. I can rotate through all the child nodes displaying one line at a time - so the XML is set up properly. But the problem is if I try to get another movie clip going, I either get undefined, or the second movie clip is a repeat of the first one. Yes I have different names for the MC’s. Another thing, I can only name the first array “caption” or I get undefined. An array name is an array name isn’t it? Couldn’t I just name them say “date”, “happening”, “info”? Do i have to declare them all as variables? I have got to be overlooking something. How can i get this thing to display more child nodes? Any commments, suggestions are appreciated.
