Hello all!

I have a hundred buttons on the screen. I also have an array containing a list of all 100 buttons.

Now, I want to use the same onRollOver method for every button. I DON’T want to program each button separately.

I am thinking something along these lines:  
myArray = new Array

myArray[0] = button1  
myArray[1] = button2  
myArray[2] = button3 etc up to myArray[99] = button100  
then:  
allButtons = myArray[index]

allButtons.onRollOver = function() {  
myonRollOverFunction(); };

Can I do this using an array? I’ve tried, but I don’t know arrays well enough to figure it out.

God bless you if you can help me!
