Wonder if someone more experienced could help. When i run this flash file the movies freezes. Its specifically when i click the button that activates this function. I dont think its a never ending loop. Having changed a few things around I know for sure this code is the prob

function calculateScore() {  
var i:Number = 0;  
while (i \< dealerScoreArray.length) {  
trace("SCORE " + i);  
}  
}

Any ideas whats wrong? the dealerScoreArray always has an item pushed into it before this function is called so will have at least 1 in length

Thanks if anyone can help
