I'm not sure if this is at all possible, but I've been trying this for hours with no prevale. I can only presume I'm over complicating things.
I've generated a awkward looking string using variables, and arrays:
Code:
var someVar:string = "hello";
var myArray:Array = new Array("test0", "test1", "test2");
var myString:string = someVar+"World_"+myArray[2]);

I am having issues with a global array. I have an actionscript file called MyGlobal.as at the same level as my main FLA:

I am able to trace that first element while trace is called within the function... but if I try to trace that first element outside of the function it is "undefined". Do I need to return the array at the end of the function? I tried that but I cant seem to get it working correctly.
i'm attempting to instantiate a bunch of sounds by creating a string array containing each sound's filepath (or name).

I'm familiar with AS2 and just now beginning AS3. I have a main or root SWF that will call other SWFs. In the past I would put them on levels but now I know with AS3 that isn't so. I will only load one swf at a time. Each will replace the other. I'm using addChild and it seems to work.I really want the Stage SWF to check inside the added child SWF for a String. What is the correct syntax for that in AS3. I have done many attempts but nothing. The last trace I ran was:trace(MovieClip(clipLoader.content)); and that gave me [object MainTimeline]. FYI - The string is "BtnName".[code]

Anything I do to customerCheck treats it as if it were a new array. This is especially obvious when using customerCheck.push in addCharToCheck() -- the trace always shows a blank array before push and an array with one object in it after the push... then next time it does the same. I know I'm making some sort of fundamental error regarding the scope of the array within the class but I just cannot find any good information on how to fix it! Moving to AS3 (been coding it for all of about 3 weeks) is a nightmare so far, and it seems to be the 'easy' stuff that causes me problems
Basically I'm trying to output the contents of an XML document into a dynamic text field (as loaded - not just its node values and content - the entire thing - into a variable called _root.log). The text field is set to show the variable value of _root.log.This is the actionscript...

I copied some code over to a similar function, which traces out the array index number using indexof(e.target).For some reason I'm getting the usual undefined property errors, but it is tracing other properties in the array using e.target?[code]
