ARRAY?

Hi guys. I wanted to know if its possible to give something a name and add a variable to it…for example i have a loop from 1 to 10 with the variable i holding the count; in it i’m creating a dynamic button called myButton, and at the end of the loop i’m adding 1 to the i. Is it possible that i call the button creating dynamically myButton[i] or something so that it’s name would be myButton(and the number of the loop), therefore creating a new button for every loop….this would create 10 buttons. What do you think?

i’m creating a button dynamically in a loop. I need to name it myButton and the number of the loop so if the loop just started from 1, the button is called myButton1. The code you posted does that iceonflames?

could this be applied to a dynamic text field?

for(var i:Number = 1;i<=10;i++){
this.createTextField(“myButton”+i, this.getNextHighestDepth(), 0,0,0,0);
this[“myButton”+i].text = “dummy text”;
this[“myButton”+i].autoSize = true;
this[“myButton”+i].text.onRelease = function(){
//do stuff here
}
}

for(var i:Number = 1;i<=10;i++){
this.createTextField(“myButton”+i, this.getNextHighestDepth(), 0,0,0,0);
this[“myButton”+i].text = “dummy text”;
this[“myButton”+i].autoSize = true;
this[“myButton”+i].text.onRelease = function(){
//do stuff here
}
}

Try using the eval function instead of this

for(var i:Number = 1;i<=10;i++){
this.createTextField(eval(“myButton”+i), this.getNextHighestDepth(), 0,0,0,0);
eval(“myButton”+i).text = “dummy text”;
eval(“myButton”+i).autoSize = true;
eval(“myButton”+i).text.onRelease = function(){
//do stuff here
}
}
