Collision Detection hitTestObject not working.. ish

Question

Obviously as you can see from this clip the Hit and Miss is not corresponding to the actual event on the stage. why? It works only if I give the objects instance name, but not working when using the var name. why?

here's the code:

import flash.events.Event;

var gball: SmallGreenBall1_T = new SmallGreenBall1_T();

var bucket: allBuckets = new allBuckets();

this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, handleCollision)

function handleCollision(evt: Event): void {

if (gball.hitTestObject(bucket)) {

output_txt.text = "HIT"

} else {

output_txt.text = "MISS"

}

maybe you just need to remove some code. if you have a gball on-stage and a bucket on stage, use:

import flash.events.Event;

this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, handleCollision)

function handleCollision(evt: Event): void {

if (gball.hitTestObject(bucket)) {

output_txt.text = "HIT"

} else {

output_txt.text = "MISS"

}

p.s. if that fails, is gball time-line tweened?

bucket's at 0,0 though you can't see it because you failed to add it to the stage.same with gball but you must be doing something with one or both of those two for the textfield text to change.
