2 html5 javascript questions

Question

Hi guys, haven't used flash for many years but drawn back in lately with animate. So, may I ask 2 questions please?

1) So in a movie clip, I have a nested movie clip. From this inner clip, using code on a keyFrame, can I target objects in the parent movie above me? Specifically I want to change visibllity of a object up there.

2) I have a variable, X, that counts up or down depending on which button is pressed. I would like to be able to see the variable for troubleshooting. Can I create a text field that displays X when I test the page in a browser?

Thanks for any help, I'm shocked at how hard it is to find info on java in animate 😕😕

yes, if the object exists when your code executes, this.parent.instancename.visible  2. yes, but it's easier to use your browser's developer console with console.log(yourvariable)
