Consider that we have a container (MovieClip) named \"cont\"\r\nand we want to erase all the movieclip inside it.

while (cont.numChildren > 0){ cont.removeChildAt(0); }

You can also do something like:

while (cont.numChildren > 0){ cont.removeChildAt(0); }

You're right. That's much cleaner for removing all children. On the other hand you can't add any exceptions/filters like this:

for(var i:int = cont.numChildren-1; i>=0; i--) if (cont.getChildAt(i).x > 400){ this.removeChildAt(i); } }

Perhaps i should have set a better title and example code. Thanks for your advice!
