RE: [flexcoders] String to object reference?

You can access the properties of any object by name, using square-bracket 
notation. For example, o.p can be written o[p]. In this case, the relevant 
object is 'this', so you want

this[california]
this[california + _over]

Subject: [flexcoders] String to object reference?



Hi,
I was wondering if it's possible to change a string to an object name.
For example, I pass a string california, and there's an object named
california. I would like to reference the california object.

For example, this is my code right now:
case california:
up = california;
over = california_over;
break;

I would like to have
up = californiaString  to object;
over = californiaString + _over  to object.

Thanks,
Mike
