Hi all,

I’ve just started work on the second website I will ever be making entirely in flash. 🍺

[![](http://img501.imageshack.us/img501/7513/helplt8.th.jpg)](http://img501.imageshack.us/my.php?image=helplt8.jpg)

As you can see from the vague illitration the website consists of a navigation and a cool slider that indicates to the user what page they are currently on. However. Although I have managed to write a piece of code that successfully slides the page indicator out of sight I want to make this generic.

Otherwise I will need to repeat this code for each instance of a page on each button.

```auto

on (release) {
 if (_root.about_us._currentframe == 40) {
 _root.about_us.play()
 }
}

```

Which would just be crazy.

I’ve looked into arrays but I dont see how I can place an array in the code instead of about\_us.

Any ideas?  
(just ask for more information) :huh:
