I am making a flash website with a page that is a “newsreader” style, for posting articles. The article info is loaded dynamically from an XML document.

I made a page like this before using AS2, and used the duplicateMovieClip method in a for-each loop to list each news article. I am using AS3 in my new flash document, but am finding that there is no longer the duplicateMovieClip method.

I need a suggestion to replace the duplicateMoveClip, or another way to accomplish what I am trying to do. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
