ME GOING CRAZY (for loop problem)

programming flash
1

i want to take an array and have one for loop which will affect items below an array position and another for loop to affect items above an array position.

so if i have 6 dynamically attached clips and i click on the third one, i want clips 1-2 as well as clips 4-6 to do something but the third one will not be effected.

If i could just start a for loop with i=myNumber; instead of i=0; then it would be easy!

for(i=0; i<myNumber; i++){
//do stuff to clips with dynamic name less than my clip
}

for(i=myNumber; i<myArray.length; i++){
//do stuff to clips with dynamic name greater than myclip
}

i’m assuming that’s not possible! what is the workaround?

arrrggggh!!! my head hurts!
