Assigning Dynamic Text from a Function in AS3

Asked by rgarimella in Macromedia Flash

Hi Folks,

New to AS3, here is what I am trying to do. I have a function, check the code snippet nextFunction.

I have a template_mc movie clip on the stage. It has a dynamic text field named "textKontent" inside the template_mc movieclip.

I am getting a error message when the next_btn is clicked

Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

Any ideas

next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nextFunction);
 
function nextFunction(event:MouseEvent):void {
	if (count != maincontent.textContent.length - 1){
		
		count++;
		var templateName:String = maincontent.template[count];
		
		template_mc.gotoAndStop(templateName);
 
		template_mc.textKontent.htmlText = maincontent.textContent[count];
 
	}
}
