duplicateMovieClip scope 2004-03-12 - By Robert H. Maurizi

What exactly are you trying to trace out? It appears that you're
attempting to trace an instance of a MC, so I'm not sure if that will
actually trace, as I don't think it returns anything... What about:
trace(_root.contentScreen_mc.contentLoader_mc._name); // or some other
property of said mc to see if it's getting created properly.
also, using the 30 level won't remove the clip at level 20 which, if
I'm not mistaken, you want to do.
