hi,

i need to remove the event listeners in each frame of my movie and re-apply them to stop them repeating themselves as i call the gotoAndStop command in the “Change” function in as i’m swapping through scenes and frames.

but i can’t remove the event listeners. what am i doing wrong? any help? Thanks in advance.

Front.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER\_FRAME, Change);  
Back.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER\_FRAME, Change);  
Side.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER\_FRAME, Change);

Front.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, function(){Change(1, “White”)});  
Back.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, function(){Change(2, “White”)});  
Side.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, function(){Change(3, “White”)});
