What i want to do is to populate a text field with the numerical position of an item in an array. Here’s what I’ve got so far:
an array- call it bArray - which holds references to three button mc’s:
ActionScript Code:
[FONT=Courier New][LEFT]bArray=[COLOR=#000000]new[/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000FF]Array[/COLOR][COLOR=#000000][[/COLOR]btn1, btn2, btn3[COLOR=#000000]][/COLOR]
[/LEFT]
[/FONT]
Then I have a for loop which feeds a variable that numbers each button, and includes rollOver and rollOff functions:
ActionScript Code:
[FONT=Courier New][LEFT][COLOR=#0000FF]for[/COLOR][COLOR=#000000]([/COLOR][COLOR=#000000]var[/COLOR] i=[COLOR=#000080]0[/COLOR]; i<bArray.[COLOR=#0000FF]length[/COLOR]; i++[COLOR=#000000])[/COLOR][COLOR=#000000]{[/COLOR]
pos=i+[COLOR=#000080]1[/COLOR];
[COLOR=#808080]//numberText is a text field in the btn movie clip.[/COLOR]
bArray[COLOR=#000000][[/COLOR]i[COLOR=#000000]][/COLOR].[COLOR=#000080]numberText[/COLOR].[COLOR=#0000FF]text[/COLOR]=pos;
[COLOR=#808080]*//bPos=bArray**[/COLOR]
bArray[COLOR=#000000][[/COLOR]i[COLOR=#000000]][/COLOR].[COLOR=#0000FF]onRollOver[/COLOR]=rollOverButton;
bArray[COLOR=#000000][[/COLOR]i[COLOR=#000000]][/COLOR].[COLOR=#0000FF]onRollOut[/COLOR]=rollOutButton;
[COLOR=#000000]}[/COLOR]
[/LEFT]
[/FONT]
Okay, not a problem. But now what I want is this- when you click a button, a text field in another movie clip displays the number of the button just clicked. And I can’t figure out how to derive that value from the array.
Anyone have any helpful clues?
