[Flash 8] Help with variables as values

programming flash
1

I would like to know if there is a way to insert a variable inside “”.

Here is an example to explain what I mean:

First there is a variable:

var myVariable = [Paris, Tokyo, London]

I want this code as it is. I don`t want too change the value to [“Paris”, “Tokyo”, “London”].

Now I want to use this variable to make a button tell the main timeline to go to the frame “Paris”.

In other words the equivalent of

startButton.onRelease = function() {
this._parent.gotoAndStop("Paris");
};

But using a variable I only know how to do this:

startButton.onRelease = function() {
this._parent.gotoAndStop(myVariable[0]);
};
 
//this equals gotoAndStop(Paris)
 
startButton.onRelease = function() {
this._parent.gotoAndStop("myVariable[0]");
};
 
//this equals gotoAndStop("myVariable[0]")

Is there a way to put the value of the variable between “” so that it equals gotoAndStop(“Paris”), without changing the variable code itself?
