There is no such a thing as a item on stage without an instance name. If you did not create a name, ActionScript 3.0 will create a name for you. Find out how to trace this name and how to access the item, using it.

var mySmile : Smile;
// the variable mySmile will contain
// a smile movie clip
//This will add 3 smiles
//next one another
for (var i: int =0; i <3; i++) {
mySmile = new Smile();
//this class was automatically created
// on previous tutorial
addChild (mySmile);
//this adds a smile to stage
mySmile.x = i*mySmile.width;
//this will position the smile next to previous
// this will assign a name to our stage item....
mySmile.name = "mySmile"+i;
//i variable is the loop counter
//This will give us the instance name
trace (mySmile.name);
}
addChild(mySmile);
//this will place a smile
//on our empty stage
remove_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, removeSmile);
// removeSmile is a function we will create
// that removes the movie clip from stage
function removeSmile (event:MouseEvent):void {
removeChild(getChildByName ("mySmile0"));
// this will remove the child with the name we created from stage.
}
// thanks for watching !!
