Remove child problem

1

Hi,

I’m having an ongoing problem trying to remove instances of child/children.
I have a function (btFnc) that creates a child (bT) and then the function is called several times to add instances to the stage - btFnc(264,3.6); btFnc(304,4.6); btFnc(344,5.6); btFnc(384,6.6); btFnc(424,7.6);

Yet i cannot for the life of me remove all of the children, only 1.


public class screen18 extends MovieClip {
        private var scrnXMLLoader:XMLLoader;//XML Loading class
        private var screenTxt:Array;
        private var s1Txt:textF;
        private var ph1:p1;

            //

                cBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, s02Nxt);                                                                    
            }        
            
            function s02Nxt(e:MouseEvent):void {                                    
                cBtn.buttonMode=false;
                cBtn.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, sOver);
                cBtn.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, s02Nxt);
                TweenLite.to(cBtn,.5,{alpha:0,ease:Expo.easeOut});
                TweenLite.to(s1Txt,.5,{alpha:0,ease:Expo.easeOut});
                TweenLite.to(ph2,.5,{alpha:1,y:166,ease:Expo.easeOut,overwrite:0});
                TweenLite.to(ph1,.5,{alpha:1,ease:Expo.easeOut,overwrite:0,onComplete:screen02});                                                
                removeChild(ph1);
                removeChild(ph2);                                        
            }        
            
        }

This then repeats for screens 2, 3 & 4.

Any help would be greatly received as this has been driving me crazy for days now and I have tried many variations of the removeChild, At etc.

Thanks in advance
