Re: Create TxtMember ON THE FLY - adding mouseUp -CONTINUE

Good catch! Yes, that should have been pValue. One should always be wary of untested e-mail Lingo!

This is an important thing for beginning behavior writers to understand. The idea is that you can set a property variable (in this case 'pValue', rather than 'theValue') in one handler, and the value stored into the property variable will be remembered across different calls within the same behavior. So, later when the mouseUp handler is called by Director, the value stored into pValue will still be there.

Thanks Nik!

 on beginSprite me

    theValue = value(the last char of sName)
 end

 on mouseUp me
    SomeHandlerThatWillCheckForCorrectness(pValue)
 end

should that be:
pValue = value(the last char of sName)
??
