The first time you declare the var i, it is in scope for the rest of the
function, not the loop. Think of it this way:
function someFunc():void
{
.
.
.
var i:int;
for (i = 0; i < someArray.length; i ++) {
// do something cool
}
for (i = 0; i < someOtherArray.length; i ++) {
// do something even cooler
}
}
Make sense?
Cordially,
