:tie: Hi, this script is not attaching the array name to the beginning of .swf. Any ideas why?

[AS]  
folio\_arr = [“aa”, “bb”, “cc”, “dd”, “ee”, “ff”];  
// --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
for (i=0; i\<folio\_arr.length; i++) {  
this[“folio”+(i+1)].onRelease = function(){  
loadMovie(folio\_arr\*+".swf", “folioClip”);  
folioClip.preload(627, 201, 170, 16, 0, 0xDCDCDC, 0x000000);  
}  
};  
[/AS]

hi, because the i doesn’t get that far!  
try tracing it!

try this:

```auto

for (i = 0; i < folio_arr.length; i++) {
	this["folio" + (i + 1)].i = i;
	this["folio" + (i + 1)].onRelease = function() {
		loadMovie(folio_arr[this.i] + ".swf", "folioClip");
		folioClip.preload(627, 201, 170, 16, 0, 0xDCDCDC, 0x000000);
	};
}

```

the i will be a property of each movie clip, and you can call it using _this.i_
