I’m not proud of my subject line, but it was the best I could do.
I’m using this while loop to activate the function buttonpressed from one of five buttons named thumb0, thumb1, etc.:
i = -1; while (i++ < 4){this[“thumb”+(i)].addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,buttonpressed);}
I want the main timeline to jump to the labeled frame corresponding with the targeted button’s number
function buttonpressed(evt:MouseEvent):void{MovieClip(root).gotoAndStop(“clip”+*);}
I know this isn’t correct. The i is always 5, its last defined value after the loop has run.
