createEmptyMovieClip from dynamic movieclip [code supplied]

[QuantumDoja]

Hi, I have a movieclip that is created dynamically with actionscript. I want to then create a empty movieclip on this movieclip to load some more content...here is my code. How can I get it to work?

//this doesnt work
this["mc"+myId].createEmptyMovieClip("fu" + myId,this.getNextHighestDepth());

//this does
this.createEmptyMovieClip("fu" + myId,this.getNextHighestDepth());

looks like you are attempting to place a clip inside of itself which wont work

this.createEmptyMovieClip("fu" + myId,this.getNextHighestDepth());
this["fu"+myId].createEmptyMovieClip("fu" + myId+1,this.getNextHighestDepth());

will work

however it aint clear from the question if thats what you are looking for
