title: AS3 Timeline Variable issues
body: <p>I'm trying to get a dynamic movie clip from the timeline.</p>
  
  <p>I have a timeline of unknown length with a movie clip with instance name "blah" on one of the key frames (assumed 88 in this case).<br/>
  No matter what I do, I cannot get a reference to the said movie clip. </p>
  
  <p>Here's what I tried:</p>
  
  <pre><code>trace(blah); // null
  trace(this.blah); // null
  trace(getChildByName("blah")); // null
  
  if(currentFrame == 88)
      trace(getChildByName("blah")); // null
  
  for(var i:int=0; i&lt;numChildren; ++i)
      trace(getChildAt(i));
  /* Returns:
   * [object MovieClip]
   * [object Shape]
   * null
   * [object TextField]
   */
  
  // Assuming the first movie clip is the correct one
  trace(getChildAt(0).name); // instance?? where ?? are random digits, I'm expecting "blah"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Can someone please shed light on how to import timeline generated objects through code?</p>
