I couldn't follow your logic exactly, but I figure I could show you
some basic looping tricks.
Hope this helps... :
var linkArray:Array = new Array();
for (var i = 0; i < countyNodes.length; i++) {
linkArray[i] = new Array(); // nested array
linkArray[i].thisCounty = countyNodes
[i].firstChild.firstChild.nodeValue;
linkArray[i].thisLink = countyNodes[i].lastChild.firstChild.nodeValue;
}
...
// i = active movieClip
var myMC:MovieClip = this["countyMC"+i];
myColor = new Color(myMC);
myColor.setRBG(out_color);
if (linkArray[i].thisLink == undefined || Douglas_URL == "") {
myMC._visible = false;
}

Hi All,
I'm working off of something that someone else coded, and trying to
make it read some xml data (it was just reading a static include).
Anyway, it loops through 72 county nodes. I've got this part working:
//loop through and set all the county vars
var countyNodeLength = countyNodes.length;
for (var i = 0; i < countyNodeLength; i++) {
thisCounty = countyNodes[i].firstChild.firstChild.nodeValue;
thisLink = countyNodes[i].lastChild.firstChild.nodeValue
// this line sets the vars - I couldn't get it to work
properly using the "var" keyword
set (thisCounty + "_URL", thisLink);
}
But, a litte later on, he had hardcoded the following stuff 72 times,
where Douglas is one example of a value that would be in the
"thisCounty" set in the loop above:
Douglas_color = new Color(_root.Douglas.btn_color);
Douglas_color.setRGB(out_color);
if (Douglas_URL == "undefined" || Douglas_URL == undefined) {
Douglas._visible = false;
}
I haven't been able to figure out a way to set that dynamically as I
run through the loop. Is it even possible to do that much dynamic
evaluation?
Thanks in advance.
