Hi:

I have this function and code:

```auto
 
for (i=0; i<=4; i++) {
   eval("m"+i).onRelease = function() {
    carrega_movie(i,10,10);
    };
}
function carrega_movie(movie,posx,posy) {
 container._x = posx;
 container._y = posy;
 container.loadMovie(movie);
}
 

```

I want to assign an Onrelease function for each movie using the “i” value

But it assumes i=5 (because of my for loop), and i want it to be 0,1,2,3… in movies m0,m1, m2 …

Is there any solution to make this work so that the function carrega\_movie uses the temporary value of i assigned in the for loop?

Many thanks for your help
