I was reading another query on this board about NOT using eval, as it had become deprecated, for attaching a name to a new
MC. I have been using eval to check through all the objects, and to add ones with a certain name to an array.
for (i in this) {
if ((typeof (eval(i))) == "movieclip" && substring(i, 1, 5)== "names") {
would there be another method of doing this using dot notation?
sorry if this question seems a little muddled. I am new to flash, some things in it make a lot of sense and others are still confusing me.
