Ok that was my other question. Bouncing back from PHP to AS3 is making me insane. Thanks for the info. Arrays are def the way to go.
Thanks again, T -----Original Message----- From: flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com [mailto:flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com] On Behalf Of Muzak Sent: Saturday, March 28, 2009 7:50 PM To: Flash Coders List Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] AS3 Object reference There's no "_width" in AS3.. it's "width". Array access notation should work fine: photoStrip_mc["thumbnail" + i + "_mc"].width; As a sidenote, you're better off storing references in an array for easy access later. myClips = new Array(); var len:uint = 10; for(var i:uint=0; i<len; i++) { var mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip(); photoStrip_mc.addChild(mc); myClips.push(mc); } If you need to access the clips at some later time, just loop through the myClips Array. var len:uint = myClips.length; for(var i:uint=0; i<len; i++) { var mc:MovieClip = myClips[i]; mc.width = someValue; } regards, Muzak ----- Original Message ----- From: "TS" <sunnrun...@gmail.com> To: "'Flash Coders List'" <flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com> Sent: Sunday, March 29, 2009 3:09 AM Subject: [Flashcoders] AS3 Object reference > Trying to cylec through some objects.
