How a function can be attached to a dynamically generated movieclip (ex: using createEmptyMovieClip).  
illustration code:

for(i=1 to 5)  
{  
[indent]createEmptyMovieClip(…)  
loadMovie(…)  
NewMovieclip.onRollover = function () {trace(“this is NewMovieclip over”)}  
[/indent]}

NewMovieclip.onRollover … is this the right way?

thanks in advance.
