ok, I got a few problems…mostly cause it’s been a while since I done any actionscript or work with flash, anyway
here is the code:
var alphabets = new Array();
alphabets[0] = “A”;
alphabets[1] = “B”;
alphabets[2] = “C”;
alphabets[3] = “D”;
alphabets[4] = “E”;
alphabets[5] = “F”;
alphabets[6] = “G”;
alphabets[7] = “H”;
alphabets[8] = “I”;
alphabets[9] = “J”;
alphabets[10] = “K”;
alphabets[11] = “L”;
alphabets[12] = “M”;
alphabets[13] = “N”;
alphabets[14] = “O”;
alphabets[15] = “P”;
alphabets[16] = “Q”;
alphabets[17] = “R”;
alphabets[18] = “S”;
alphabets[19] = “T”;
alphabets[20] = “U”;
alphabets[21] = “V”;
alphabets[22] = “W”;
alphabets[23] = “X”;
alphabets[24] = “Y”;
alphabets[25] = “Z”;
stop();
function getF(){
var ltimes,lnum,lpick;
ltimes = 8;
lnum = 0;
while (lnum < ltimes){
lpick = Math.random()*25;
lpick = Math.round(lpick);
firstletter.text = alphabets(lpick);
lnum = lnum + 1;
}
}
What I have in the movie is a dynamic text box called firstletter and a button. Clicking on this button calls the getF function…
now I get different error messages depening on the contents of the function. If it’s as above I get an undefined error message…
if I change the firstletter.text to equal something like lnum, then it will change the first time round the while loop but not the next time
some help would be appreciated here, thanks :beam:
