[font=Fixedsys][font=Times New Roman][size=3]Hello!

I have a problem and I hope that u can help me out. The thing is that I’m going to have several buttons on my page but I want them all to have the same animation or behavior when clicked on. Is it possible to use variables to label objects?

[/size][/font][font=Times New Roman][size=3]Would really appreciate if someone could help me out![/size][/font][font=Times New Roman][size=3]

[/size][/font][font=Times New Roman][size=3]Lets imagine that I have button named home and another one labeled about. And then I have a variable named buttonName that changes when you put ur mouse over a button.[/size][/font]  
[font=Courier New]  
home.onRollOver = function(){  
buttonName = “home”;  
URL = “[http://www.google.com](http://www.google.com)”;  
};

```
 home.onRollOut = function(){
     buttonName = "";
     URL = "";
 };

```

[/font] [/font][font=Courier New]about.onRollOver = function(){  
buttonName = “about”;  
URL = “[http://www.av.com](http://www.av.com)”;  
};

about.onRollOut = function(){  
buttonName = “”;  
URL = “”;  
};  
[/font][font=Fixedsys][font=Courier New]  
[/font] [font=Courier New][color=Red]buttonName[/color][/font][font=Courier New].onRelease = function(){  
getURL(URL, \_blank);  
};[/font]

[font=Times New Roman][size=3]I hope you understand the problem…  
Thanks![/size][/font][/font]
