Help! Remove Movie Clips

Question

OK...here's my problem... I am making a portfolio site and I
have my thumbnails being created dynamically through XML...very
similar to the galleries example in the Sample and Tutorials. Only
problem is that I have multiple keyframes with different thumbnails
that need to be displyed through a different XML file. I got it to
work but the thumbnails from the first frame are still showing on
the second frame...How do I remove the dynamically created movie
clips?

Answer 1

OK...here's the code...At thebottom of the document, I need
to remove the clips created on the next button. This is the same
code from the gallery sample file; I just added my own XML file.
