I'm trying to generate 5 random numbers within a range. I'm saving these inside an array through the use of a for loop.
[code]...
The result of this is that the 5th slot has a number. The first 4 are "undefined". Why would the last loop work and the others fail?
Learning Action script and programming so I apologize that the solution is simple, I just don't know what it is. What I want to happen is to pass objects through that I want to fall down the screen. I pass the object in through e:Event (which comes from an event listener on the stage) and speed which gets a random number between a high and low value.When I run it, it of course gets a new random number every frame. (because its called by an Event.ENTER_FRAMEHow do I go about this to accomplish my goal?Here is my code:
private function moveIt(e:Event, speed):void
{
if ( e.currentTarget.y <= 400 )

I want a movieclip consisting of a dynamic text box that, from the time it's loaded onto the stage, loads a randomly selected text string from an array, and continues to loop until the clip is removed from the stage. I also want the text strings to appear in the text box for random intervals between 500 and 3000 milliseconds.
While I've found tutorials here and elsewhere on loading one element from an array, usually triggered by a button, I don't know how to combine/alter it with the other elements.So I want this movieclip on the stage randomly flashing phrases from an array, some for a barely perceptible time, and others for a readable time.
Is it putting the first random var and then the second, like this?
frases.push(myXML.pais.frase1[ps][r]);

I have done this same thing in ActionScript 3, but am not familiar with ActionScript 2, which I am forced to use for this project. I am loading products into a SWF via XML and attempting to add a click event to each dynamically-created movieclip. Simply tracing the text from a node in XML will do for now. I'd like to assign a property called "desc" or "description" to each movieclip and have it trace that property's value when clicked. Here is the relevant portion of my code as it stands:
ActionScript Code:
var iXML:XML = new XML();
iXML.ignoreWhite = true;

I have code that I got off line that will create a random number in the output tab. I put together an if else statement, however I can not figure out what how to call the random number into the if else statement. My last try was calling "n," However that did not work. I have a bit of the code that I am working with. I am giving only the first 3 but there are 13 in total, but as they are all the same just going to different frames I thought that it was not necessary to show them all.
function randRange(min:Number, max:Number):Number {
var randomNum:Number = Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min + 1)) + min;
return randomNum;
[code]...
If there is an easier way to get the same thing I am open. I just want it to start on a specific random frame (13 of them).

I'm building a dynamic Grid Gallery in AS2 consisting of 35 image spaces with over a 100 images to select from. I want the images to be selected randomly, but don't want any of the images to repeat. This is the code I have for the Randomnization.
I figured that if the imageNumber equaled itself then it would continue to randomize until it did not equal it self, but this is not the case.
Code:
function loading_function(a:Number){
imageNumber = Math.floor(Math.random() * 100);
