Hi there, I want to call a function but want to able to call it dynamically so a string that is passed will determine which function is called. My reason for this is I have an interface with a number of buttons that have different labels but that look the same and need to call different functions. I was going to make one button and duplicate it then name it so it will call a function depending on what it's name is. My code would go something like this:

///////inside 'button' MC named 'pictures'
var label:String = this._name

this.onPress = function(){
//want to call function from here, dictated by the name of the MC, not sure of this sytanx
        this._parent.label()
}
////////////////main timeline
function pictures(){
//to be called from pictures button onPress event
}
///////////
Any suggestions much appreciated!
Ali
