Description

Method; creates an empty movie clip as a child of an existing movie clip. This method behaves similarly to the attachMovie method, but you don't need to provide an external linkage name for the new movie clip. The registration point for a newly created empty movie clip is the upper left corner. This method fails if any of the parameters are missing.
