Determining which button was clicked

programming flash

I’m making a set of buttons from xml…each button is corresponding with a picture in a photogallery…


for (var i:Number = 0; i < intSlideCount; i++) {

	var newThumb = this.addChild(new Thumb());
	newThumb.x = X + (SPACE * i);
	newThumb.y = Y;
				
	newThumb.theNum.text = i + 1;
	newThumb.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
}

Here is my onClick listener…


private function onClick(e:MouseEvent):void {
	if(slideTimer.running) {
		slideTimer.stop();
	}
			
	slideLoader = new Loader();
	slideLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, fadeSlideIn);
	slideLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, showProgress);
	slideLoader.load(new URLRequest(xmlSlideshow..image[????????].@src));
}

i can’t figure out how to get the button to correspond with the correct picture… hence the question marks…please help
