Canvas ID not being used when Canvas is created by State change

Question

After logging into my app I do a State change, which adds a
few more buttons on a Linkbar and adds two more sections to a
ViewStack. For the initial Canvas sections, I have an ID associated
with each. Upon clicking a button, for example, I can alert on the
value associated with each ID.
However, for the new Canvases that are added, this is not
working, even though an ID is associated with the Canvas. Instead,
it is just telling me "Canvas355", where the number is different
every time the app is initiated.
Does anyone have any ideas about this?
Thanks.

Hoepfully this will help. It's just the function to pop up
the help window, but I put in an Alert.show to test with for now.
private function helpWindow():void {
helpinfopop = helpinfo(PopUpManager.createPopUp(this,
helpinfo, false));
helpinfopop.title="Help";
helpinfopop.showCloseButton=true;
helpinfopop.hscreen=allinfo.selectedChild.name;
Alert.show(allinfo.selectedChild.name);
PopUpManager.centerPopUp(helpinfopop);
"allinfo" is the ID of the main ViewStack. What happens, if I
just talk about the Alert.show function, is that for the 3 primary
Canvases, it will show the ID I defined. For the new Canvases after
the State change, it shows the random name/number. If I review the
config, every single Canvas has an ID set.
Thoughts?
Thanks for all the help so far.
