Ok, I’m making a quiz for work…at the end of the quiz, it dynamically pulls the questions you missed and show how you answered. The goal is to create a personalized study guide for people who fail the test.

In version 1 of the quiz, it all works, except that when a user misses too many questions, the list of missed questions overlaps the page. In order to combat that, I created a scrollable movie clip and placed the dynamic text into the scrollable movie clip. The current actionscript calls a movie from the library, then fills the textboxes in with the appropriate information. However, as soon as I buried the movieclip with the textboxes 1 level deeper, the textboxes no longer update. Any suggestions?
