I have a movieClip prototype that calls another function once it has finished.  
The other function could be one of many.  
I want to be able to pass the variables of the second function to the first function:

```auto
MovieClip.prototype.func1=function(varA,varB,func2name,func2args){
// do something
// once done call second function:
this[func2Name](func2args.join(','));
};

```

// called using:

```auto
myMC.func1(varA,varB,"func2Name",{func2Arg1:value, func2Arg2:value})

```

Any idea how this should be written?  
At the moment only the first variable of func2 is populated…

Thanks for helpin me out on this 1 🙂
