Error on debug if naming a textarea with _txt ending in flash cs 4 AS3

Question

I was doing a tutorial, and i notice that if i put the name of a text area with a _txt ending i end up with this error

TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert fl.controls::TextArea@1ef0221 to fl.controls.TextInput.

anybody knows why ?

Answer 1

Are you sure that it's a naming issue? It sounds like you may have used the wrong component or are casting it incorrectly in your code. If you could post your code, that would be helpful.
