Error: A 'with' action failed because the specified object did not exist.

I keep getting the above error when I go to test my "movie" ... What is this from?

lol

No doubt...I checked all my "with" statements and I could not find it. Funny thing is, I re-wrote the code the exact same way and it went away. Maybe I messed up on the original button I had assigned the action script to begin with, who knows?

But thanks for the quick reply...everything is cool now. I come here as a LAST resort. I am just glad I got everything working.

:beam:

it actually should be a warning and not an error - and why the compiler cares is beyond me (usually it ignores unresolved references; then again I havent tried a with() in mx04 with that error - the 04 compiler is more strict)

You got any sites I can look at? I am so new to flash, I just started working with it like a week ago after doing standard HTML, DHTML, Javascript, etc...I felt it was time to learn the flash. Here is what I have done so far:

http://www.umsounds.com/
http://www.thecawz.com

and this is my new flash site I am working on:

http://www.thecawz.com/PLANB/planB.html

It is still in need of some content and what not. I just ordered some fonts from www.miniml.com. DO you know how to embed fonts in the movie so I can use them with DYNAMIC TextScrolls...I had to use Verdana font for the Bios on this site and I dont like Verdana as much as some of these pixel fonts I have seen.

Take care!
