ArgumentError: Error #2025

This is ridiculous, why do I keep getting this error. I can't
even find any information on the internet about it... i searched
Google for 'flash cs3 error 2025' and it pulls 149 English pages.
What does this error mean, how do I fix it and how do i prevent it.
Also, I was wondering what are some best practices for using the
debug console in Flash.
PS - I am using Adobe Flash CS3 Professional...
the error comes after i enter frame 40. there is nothing in
there except a single text input component. I have tried to remove
all code, and it still pops up. I deleted all other frames except
this one and it fixed it but i don't know why it was there. hmmm,
the error message is...

haha i am sorry Trevor McCauley, i took it down becuase i did
not anticipate any further assistance however i will be more than
happy to put it back up. i have updated it since my last post
however the error is still there... this includes the flash project
file, all as files and the flash document. it is very thorough and
i hope the layout is easy to understand... man i hope that helps
thank you in advance for anything you could offer and i am very
greatful for the help.
the link has been updated (well i just put the rar file back
online)
http://network.isaacewing.com/rar/network.rar
ps - for anybody that downloads my files... when you look
through them... could you ***** the validity of my code, the
organization and the overall layout in the back of your mind...
meaning could you be as brutally honest as possible about what you
think about how i program... is it structured, clean, organized,
robust, and so on... any feedback on that would be ... meaningful
and i would like to know what you guys think!

ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.

Evenin' all.
I'm creating a Flash application split up into scenes. One of the scenes is divided into sections of ten frames with keyframes at 1 (home, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80 and 90. Frame #1 is the menu and contains the buttons to skip to each section using the gotoAndStop(); command.
However, I want to be able to skip to #1 from any point using Next/Previous buttons. I have declared the buttons in frame 1 of scene 1 as follows:
I have declared the buttons in frame 1 of scene 1 as follows:
Code:
var nextButton:Button = new Button();
var prevButton:Button = new Button();
var homeButton:Button = new Button();
At each point, I use addChild(nextButton) to add the buttons to the stage, and when the buttons are clicked it removes them as follows:
Code:
nextButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goNext);
function goNext(e:Event):void
      removeChild(videoPlayer);
      removeChild(prevButton);
      removeChild(nextButton);
      removeChild(homeButton);
      gotoAndStop(20);
Now, all the 'Next' buttons work but none of the 'Previous' buttons work, when all they do is gotoAndStop() ten frames backwards rather than ten frames forwards, I keep getting this error message:
Code:
ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.
     at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/removeChild()
     at Prototype_fla::MainTimeline/goBack()
The same is happening with the Home buttons, which skip from whichever frame the user is on to the menu. The Next buttons are the only ones working consistently.
Please help, this is really stressing me out, I'm on Flash CS4.
Cheers

You can`t remove the target of your event while it is "active"
you wrote....
nextButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goNext);
function goNext(e:Event):void
      removeChild(videoPlayer);
      removeChild(prevButton);
      removeChild(nextButton);
      removeChild(homeButton);
      gotoAndStop(20);
instead you should write sth. like:
nextButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goNext);
function goNext(e:Event):void
// to be sure that there`s actualloy sth. to remove
      if(videoPlayer!=null){
      removeChild(videoPlayer);
     //similar
     removeChild(prevButton);
      removeChild(homeButton);
      e.currentTarget.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goNext)
      removeChild(e.currentTarget);
      gotoAndStop(20);
this is probably similar in your other function, too

Image Gallery - ArgumentError: Error #2025

Hi Guys,
I am new to flash cs3 and action script 3.0. I have made 3
image galleries, that all work fine by themselves, however i have
recently tried to link them to a central flash file and I am
getting the error:
ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must
be a child of the caller.
at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/removeChild()
at home_fla::MainTimeline/gotoHome()
I have attached the code for the central/home flash file
below.
Basically, all I am trying to achieve is to add the
client_images.swf as a child when the client images button is
clicked and then listen for a mouse click on the client_images home
button and remove the child. This works if I click the home button
straight away. If i don't click the home button with in 3 seconds,
i get the error.
I have had a good look for a solution to this problem and
haven't had much luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can
send the .fla's if you need more information.
Cheers,
Paul.

what's happening in client_images.swf? ie, btn_home is on the
main timeline. and that timeline has more than 1 frame, correct?
if yes, when 3 seconds expires the playhead is on a frame
where btn_home does not exist. ie, make sure it's the same instance
in frame 1 and frame whatever by clearing keyframes and re-creating
them on btn_home's layer.

Hello,
When i try to removeChild i am getting this error message, How can i solve this problem?

Your problem likely lies in declaring the object inside a function. It will only have scope within that function when you do that. I see where you create a new instance of the object in the function where I assume you are trying to remove the first one... the second one is the only one seen at that point, and it has not been added. Try the following:
var urunlermenum:urunlermenu; // declare it outside any function
function urunlergelsin (e:MouseEvent):void {
    urunlermenum = new urunlermenu();
    bg.solurunmenusu.addChild(urunlermenum); // Added new one
    var geridonbuton:geridon = new geridon();
    bg.geridonus_mc.addChild(geridonbuton);
    bg.geridonus_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, geridon_f);
function geridon_f(e:MouseEvent):void {
    bg.urunbtn.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, urunlergelsin);
    bg.geridonus_mc.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, geridon_f);
    var urunlermenum:urunlermenu = new urunlermenu(); // remove this
    bg.solurunmenusu.removeChild(urunlermenum);

Hi All,
I would very much appreciate any help with this.
I am working on a flash piece that will play 4 videos, depending on the button pressed. First button will launch first video, 2nd - 2nd video and so on. Once the Video is done playing, close_btn, learn_more_btn and replay_btn appear, in addition to an ending image that is different for each of the videos( BoxLivePic, BoxSleepPic and BoxFeelPic). So - actually 4 things appear once the movie stops playing and the last image depends on which buttons was clicked...
My issue is, when I click the close button( andI'm sure same will apply for the other 2 buttons), I get the error below:
ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.
    at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/removeChild()
    at AER1_r5_fla::MainTimeline/closeVideo()
I understand is that it's because each Picture is not actually added to the display list, unless the proper button was clicked.. however, I don't know how to fix that! I hope this makes some sence - Below is all of my Code... Thanks a bunch in advance:

This error means that you are trying to access an object on display list that (object) is not there.
For example, if close_btn instance is not added as child, the following line will throw this error:
removeChild(close_btn);
One of the ways to remedy this is to confirm that the object is added:
if(contains(close_btn)) removeChild(close_btn);

Thanks,

Hi Ofer,
Thanks for reporting this bug to us. I would assume It’s a weird Flex SDK bug. We would be fixing this issue in the next SDK Drop.
So for the fix,
Modify line 174-176 from
<mx:RadioButtonGroup id="radioGroup" />
<mx:RadioButton id="nellymoser" group="{radioGroup}" selected="false" label="{SoundCodec.NELLYMOSER}" click="changeCodec(event)" />
<mx:RadioButton id="speex" group="{radioGroup}" selected="true" label="{SoundCodec.SPEEX}" click="changeCodec(event)" />
To
<mx:RadioButtonGroup id="radioGroup1" />
<mx:RadioButton id="nellymoser" group="{radioGroup1}" selected="false" label="{SoundCodec.NELLYMOSER}" click="changeCodec(event)" />
<mx:RadioButton id="speex" group="{radioGroup1}" selected="true" label="{SoundCodec.SPEEX}" click="changeCodec(event)" />
As you see changing the id of the RadioGroup we were using fixes this issue.
Thanks
Arun

Does anyone have any ideas why?
var dp:DataProvider = new DataProvider();
dp.addItem( { label: "Some Data", data: "Some" } );
dp.addItem( { label: "More Data", data: "More" } );
dp.addItem( { label: "Way More Data", data: "Way More" } );
dp.addItem( { label: "No Data", data: "None" } );
var c:CustomComboBox = new CustomComboBox(50, 50, dp, "How Much Data?");
addChild(c)

The error is indicating a problem with a removeChild() method call, and none of the code you show has that as far as I can see. So you probably need to look elsewhere for the problemed code.

[flexcoders] Error #2025 - UIMovieclip and Focus Manager

Hello Everybody,
I'm getting a runtime Error #2025 when I try to use an UIMovieclip into a Flex Application.
The issue happens when the key tab is pressed and It seems has being caused by the Focus Manager.
I found some threads over the internet but nothing really concret that could give me some idea about how to solve it.

I don't know if we've figured this out yet. If you can come up with a simple test case, file a bug so we can take a look.

Error 2025/ trying to removeChild()

Hi,
I have tried to solve ths problem but without success. I have permit Debugging on so I know it s related to the removeChild().
I currently have four buttons that each call a different addChild() function. Everything works great. However, if I skim across the buttons the way someone would in eal life the error appears. I have tried different references to the stage or this or parent.removeChild(), but no luck.
Here is the output:

Thanks for your help.

Ok, After trying different approaches I changed my MOUSE_ DOWN to MOUSE_OVER which made the difference.
I think I get it. When skimming the mouse activates the button for a slit second. Since there was no code for the over state it throws an error and the remeoveChild() is probably just a ruse.
I'm sure there is someone who knows the real answer.
Thanks again.
The new code:
stop();
import flash.media.SoundMixer;

I do not understand why I cannot re-add the radio button? If you comment out the code for the radio button (comment section #3.) you can re-add the panels easily. It is only happening when I have radio buttons being added to the form/panel.
Why is this happening and how do I fix it? Why is this only happening to radio buttons? I thought I had this fixed

^ well, okay, but that's not the problem.
here, i removed list and replaced with Panel. same problem on the radio buttons.

Any idea why radio buttons causing this to happen? If I comment out the radio button, this works fine. This is really baffling me.
The exception is thrown when the dynamically created panel (thePanel) is added to the main Panel (myContainer):
myContainer.addChild(thePanel); <--- causes the exception!
^ Why would radio buttons make a difference on "thePanel"?? How can I enforce parent-child relationship, explicitly? .parent is read-only

Stupid error #2025 - How can I solve it?

Hi! How Are you guys! I'm having a problem while I'm trying to remove a Child. I have a button that loads the loader and a next and back button that let you navigate through the images in it. And last the MENU button that brings into the stage the menu bar. I would like that when you click the menu an action to remove the images from the loader. I can do that, but only if there were some images there in the loader, otherwise I get this error:
ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller. at flash.display:
:DisplayObjectContainer/removeChild()
It seems that the IF STATEMENT doesn't work properly. I guess that it must have an error, but I can't figure it out which.
Thanks in advance!!
Here is my code:
menuBra.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, onClickBra);
function onClickBra (event:MouseEvent):void {
if(contains(loaderBrand)) {
removeChild(loaderBrand);
var TweenPrint1:Tween = new Tween(menu_mc,"x", Strong.easeOut, -4000, 0, 1, true);
else {
var TweenPrint2:Tween = new Tween(menu_mc,"x", Strong.easeOut, -4000, 0, 1, true);
trace ("menu was clicked"); }

It worked with this:
if(loaderBrand.parent != null && loaderBrand.parent == this) {
removeChild(loaderBrand);
var TweenPrint1:Tween = new Tween(menu_mc,"x", Strong.easeOut, -4000, 0, 1, true); }
Thanks!!

Hi
I'm trying to load a swf onto my stage and I'm having some problems with the event handler. I'm getting an error: when I comment out the event handler, it returns no errors, I've tried the function both with and without void, but it doesn't fix the error. I know this should be an easy fix, but it's got me stumped. Can anybody help? Thanks guys.

About ArgumentError: Error #1063: Argument count mismatch

Hi
i am newbie to Flex Environment .
This is my first post in Flex , so please excuse if my question is a dumb one .
I am trying to dynamically create a Button and add EventListener to it .
public function handleClick(event:MouseEvent):void
var myBtn2:Button = new Button()
myBtn2.label = "Dynamic";
myBtn2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER,handleClick1);
this.addChild(myBtn2);
public function handleClick1(event:MouseEvent):void
Alert.show("This is for Dynamic button");
I have observered that , if i dont pass event on to the handleClick1() function i am getting ArgumentError: Error #1063: Argument count mismatch and if i pass , all is working fine .
Please tell me , why is it mantadatory to pass this ??

More accurate to say that if you define an event handler in MXML, as in <mx:Button click="clickFunc()"/> then it is optional to pass an event object with clickFunc(event), and if you do not pass it, your clickFunc() method signature does not need that argument.
But if you add an event listener with addEventListener, then the listener method signature must always tae the event object as an argument.
If this post answers your question or helps, please mark it as such.

ArgumentError: Error #2108: Scene LevelSelect was not found

Hello,
I am a new student and recently I am getting this error in every program that I write or import into Flash:
ArgumentError: Error #2108: Scene * was not found
at flash.display::MovieClip/gotoAndPlay()
          at _5_fla::MainTimeline/clickPlay()
It doesn't matter what the scene name is because I have tried cutting and pasting the scene name from the scene window and it happens on every button in every program..
Here is the code from my professor and I get the same error:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
stop();
//Add Event Listener Area
playButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, clickPlay);
howButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, clickHow);
// Functions Area
function clickPlay(event:MouseEvent):void
          MovieClip(this.root).gotoAndPlay(1,"LevelSelect");
function clickHow(event:MouseEvent):void
          gotoAndStop("1","HowToPlay");
function clickBack(event:MouseEvent):void
          gotoAndStop("1","MainMenu");
function clickLevel(event:MouseEvent):void
          gotoAndStop("1","GamePlay");
I copied and pasted the scene names here:
MainMenu
HowToPlay
LevelSelect
GamePlay
Anyone have any suggestions? This program works for the professor.

that's expected behavior. there's nothing wrong except your understanding:
how could that work in "test scene"? it's a "test scene" test environment, not a "test scenes" environment.
to test scenes in flash, use "test movie".
p.s. please mark helpful/correct responses.
