ActionScript 2.0 :: Use A Variable In The Name Of A Function?
Aug 14, 2004
I'd like to have a number of different functions named something like: "function1", "function2", "function3", all the way up to function100.
I'd like to be able to call them by adding the the number as a variable. For example:
type = 2;
function+type();
Which would call function2. I'm trying to avoid a huge if/else statement by only calling the functions I need.
Can a function be called if part of the function name is a variable? Is there another way to join "function" with the variable and then call it?

I have a public variable and I am trying to set it, then read it from a different function:
public var str:String;
public function DailyVerse()
{
function create() {
[Code]....
My trace results says null. Why does it not give me "hello"?

how you would target a function's local variable through a concatenated variable string.For example:
var txt = "Hello World";
function testing(msg) {
var test1 = msg;[code].........
I'd expect the trace to be "Hello World" but rather is given "undefined". So if variables created outside functions are created on the main timeline, where are local function variables created and how would you access them?

I have a set of Cue Points in an FLV I'm playing. It's an interactive quiz, so the idea is that flash will change a variable, theAnswer, to a different letter depending on which question it is. The answer to question 1 is B, question 2 is D, etc. Either the cue point event listener isn't working, or else it is working and Flash isn't declaring the variables. 1120: Access of undefined property theAnswer. I literally can't find a single problem with my code. I have an almost identical Event Listener further down which works.

I need to pass a variable to a function inside a function. However this parameter (i) seems not to be passed (to function ...onRollOver). This is required to attach a textfield to a movieclip (reading the adress and showing it as a tooltip).

I want to create a vector, then call a function that populates that vector with arrays. Fine. The only catch is the function itself will declare new array variables to put into the vector, but are these new array variables private to the function only?e.g. something like this
ActionScript Code:
public var vec:Vector.<Array> = new Vector.<Array>();
private function populateVec():void {
[code]....
Is this "kosher"? a was declared in the private function but added to something outside the function..?

I have created an actionscript function which stops an animation on a specific frame which works fine. I have then loaded in a php file with a variable which will contain the number for the frame i want the animation to stop on. This has loaded in fine and i have loaded it in a function. what i cant seem to do is to get the variable into the function which tells the animation to stop playing.
here is my code:
//load variablesvarReceiver = new LoadVars(); // create an object to store the variablesvarReceiver.load("http://playground.nsdesign6.net/percentage/external.php");//load variables

Can't seem to get the value of myXML outside the function, despite being declared outside. The data loads and traces correctly inside the function.
var myLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
myLoader.load(new URLRequest("flightPlannerBoard.xml"));
var myXML:XML;
// Check XML data fully loaded
myLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, processXML);
function processXML(e:Event):void {
myXML = new XML(e.target.data);
//trace(myXML);
} trace(myXML);

I have a array that gets passed straight into this function
Code:
function handleResult(re : ResultEvent)
{
QuestionSet = re.result;
trace(QuestionSet[0]['Question']);
}
Now I wan't to take the 'QuestionSet' array out of this function and expose it on the first frame (or on the _root. domain) so I can call it from OUTSIDE the function. So for example:
Code:
function handleResult(re : ResultEvent)
{
QuestionSet = re.result;
[Code]....
I can't just return the array because first i need to PUT IN the array in order to return it from the function which defeats the purpose!

Is there a way to reference a function via a variable? In other words, instead of saying something like:
var theVar = someString + 'function';
if (theVar == 'functionName') functionName ();
to access it directly:
(someString + 'function') ();
using some kind of bracket notation?

i have a function inside another function. Here is a structure of my code:
Code:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
timer = new Array();
[code]....
As you can see, I declare timer array in the main function but I also want to use it in another function inside the main function. I have tried to call _root.timer and this.timer but it returned me undefined.How can I call it to use? Or how can I declare it properly?
