Nested Display Object Containers + display list

[worked]

Hey there-  Quick question regarding the display list in as3.  Let's say I have a container and I add 3 children.  With each of the children I add another child.  Like so:

container
  - child1
      - childA
  - child2
      - childA
  - child3
      - childA

How might I access the "childA" objects?  Because the below is not working:

Code:

container.getChildAt(container.getChildIndex(container.getChildAt(0)));

Any help is appreciated!  Thanks!

Something like this (supposing all are MC, if not cast properly):


var holder:MovieClip =  container.getChildAt(0)
var target:MovieClip = holder.getChildAt(0)

Or

container.getChildAt(0).getChildAt(0);

Excellent thanks for responding Jorge!

As mentioned above I had to do some casting to get it to work.  Here's some relavent code for future on lookers:

Code:

trace((MovieClip(container.getChildAt(0)).getChildAt(0) as MovieClip).name);

Code:

var holder:MovieClip = container.getChildAt(0) as MovieClip;
var target:MovieClip = holder.getChildAt(0) as MovieClip;

trace(target.name);
