Iffy if statements

1

I am having an interesting time trying to get some looping if statements to work.

The main culprit I THINK are those parentheses.

Without them it doesn’t work at all.

With them only the trace statement will work, but only if I comment out the other stuff. Other wise all I get is this wierd “value is not a function” error.

Could someone please drop some knowledge on me for how this syntax works?

!!!Thanks!!!

Code:
function TestLoop(e:Event):void
{

  • for (var n:Number = 0; n<xmlList.length*[SIZE=5]()[/SIZE]; n++)
    {
    if (xmlList[n].attribute(“locked”) == “yes”)
    {
    ** trace (“locked”);**
    xmlList[n].removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onSelected);
    xmlList[n].removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, onOver);
    xmlList[n].gotoAndStop(2);
    }
    else
    {
    trace (“not locked”);
    }
    }
  • }*
