Hey guys, I’m coming back out of the lazy coma that I chose to call retirement! 😉 But I am stumped on one that I think is not so hard for you guys. Basically, I want to apply the same property to many movie clips. So I used a for loop. The loop manages to apply the same code to every movie and that’s great, but it always makes the same movie go to frame 2 and 6 rather than applying it to frames 2 and six of that movie. The code is below and the FLA is enclosed. Thanks in advance for your help! 😉

for (i = 0; i \< 4; i++) {  
\_root.work[“cellImgLoader” + i].id = i;  
\_root[“cellImgLoader” + i].onRollOver = function(){ \_root[“cellImgLoader” + i].gotoAndPlay(2); }  
\_root[“cellImgLoader” + i].onRollOut = function(){ \_root[“cellImgLoader” + i].gotoAndPlay(6); }  
}
