mc's in another mc

[krascheng]

hi there,

first i gotta warn u, i'm german so i might have problems expressing me right.

i got a mc, that contains other mc's. they are all in a swf that is loaded into another swf. the container mc's _x is in relation to the mouse position, works just fine. problems start with reading the inner mc's _x. it happens once when the swf is loaded but never again.

now here's the code:

this.onEnterFrame = function() {
    abstand = pfeil._x-_xmouse;
    pfeil._x -= abstand/5;
    buttonleiste._x = 600-_root.dummie_zeit.pfeil._x;
    for(i = 0; i < 7; i++) {
        if(buttonleiste["button_"+i]._x < 70 || buttonleiste["button_"+i]._x > 920) {
            buttonleiste["button_"+i]._visible = false;
        } else {
            buttonleiste["button_"+i]._visible = true;
        }
    }
    testetest = buttonleiste._x+" "+buttonleiste.button_1._visible
};
stop(); 

buttonleiste is the container, the inner mc's are button_0 to button_6. they have 2 static textfields and an invisible button on top

why can't i read the inner mc's _x?

thx
schengen
