thanks for reply
the error code does apply to the red line in the code below
function createVideoLinks():void{
for (var i:int=0; i<externalXML.videoClip.length();i++){
//build the arrays of link text and link destination
trace (108+i*20);
vidText[i]=externalXML.videoClip.vTitle[i];
vidLink[i]=externalXML.videoClip[i].@vurl;
var linkHolder:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
var linkText:TextField = new TextField();
linkText.defaultTextFormat=lInact_fmt;
linkText.embedFonts=true;
linkText.antiAliasType=AntiAliasType.ADVANCED;
linkText.text=vidText[i];
linkText.height=19; linkText.autoSize=TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
addChild(linkHolder);
linkHolder.addChildAt(linkText,0);
linkHolder.x=1; linkHolder.y=(108+i*21);
linkHolder.buttonMode=true; //appears to give me back the correct cursor for links
linkHolder.ref=i;
linkHolder.mouseChildren = false;
linkHolder.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickHandler);
linkHolder.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, overHandler);
}
}
function overHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
trace(event.currentTarget.getChildAt(0));
event.currentTarget.getChildAt(0).setTextFormat=lRoll_fmt;
}
