Hi I am trying to get this simple logic to work correctly. Right now, the trace is:  
int 0  
int 0  
int 0  
int 0

I am trying to get this to trace:  
int 0  
int 1  
int 0  
int 1

I am trying to set timers to go off back to back shortly after each other while passing through a parameter from an array.

function testFunc(e:Event,numb:int)  
{  
trace("int " + numb);  
}

var newset:Array = [0,1,0,1];  
for( var i:int = 0 ; i \<= newset.length - 1 ; i++ )  
{  
if(i \> 0)  
{  
timing = timing + 1000;  
}

var timer = new Timer(timing, 1);

timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, function(e:Event){ testFunc(e, newset\*) });

timer.start();  
}
