Re: [Flashcoders] [AS3] Problem with For loop
Yay that works great i have a slight other problem tho with the same script...
This code should load a MovieClip from the library 5 times, place each on the
stage and then load a different image into each one, instead it loads the 5
MovieClips from the library, places them on the stage and then only loads the
image into the last (5th) MovieClip
this code will not run as its stripped
var itemList:XMLList = locationInfo.item;
for (var i = 0; i < itemList.length(); i++) // Loops through 5 times
{
_summaryElement[i] = loadLibrary(summaryContainer); // Load our MovieClip
from the library
loadImage("images/" + i + ".jpg", _summaryElement[i].sumImg); // Should
load image into _summaryElement[i].sumImg which is a blank placeholder movieclip
}
function loadImage(filename:String, mcName:MovieClip):void
{
_mcName = mcName; // Contains MovieClip object (object 1 through 5)
var imageLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var imageURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest(filename);
imageLoader.load (imageURL);
imageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
imgLoadComplete);
}
function imgLoadComplete(ev:Event):void
{
_mcName.addChild(ev.target.content); // This should add the loaded image
into the placeholder movieclip for each of the 5 MovieClips
}

Re: [Flashcoders] [AS3] Problem with For loop
var summaryClick = function (ev:Event)

trace(i); // Outputs incorrectly (Outputs "5" on each MovieClip click)
???
}
i does not exist within your loaded MovieClip. You need to trace a variable
that is specific to the MovieClip.

Outputs correctly: 5 *is* the value of i when clicked.
