Declaring a variable

1

hey, this is about declaring a variable.
if i want to declare a variable called xpos
can i just write it on a mc like this

xpos = getProperty (bla bla bla bla);

by itself???

2

var xpos = getProperty should do it I think

3

yeah that should work…

but you can jsut do it like this:

xpos = movieclip._x

im assuming you want the x location

getProperty and setProperty are deprecated in Flash MX. Instead, use xpos = _root.movieclip._x, to store the x position of a movieclip with the instance name “movieclip” in the variable xpos.
