im workin with a template of joshua davis's

http://flashtothecore.praystation.com/21.html


ive been going thru his book flash to the core. with this particular movie ive been trying to figure out how to get different content into the arrays. i see the array is based on a mc (section) that we have linked to the content mc thats on the stage. what im a bit confused about is how to add content to the different sections... do i make new movie clips with the array instance names? ex a mc named "section_01" etc...

id appreciate any feedback, thanks alot.

heres the code for attatching the sections. I changed the array as i have more sections.

løk


// create an array for attaching new sections on our timeline
section = new Array(7);
max = _root.section.length;
itemDepth = 1;


for (i=0; i<max; i++) {
// attach new item
_root.content_mc.attachMovie("section", "section_"+i, itemDepth);
curItem = content_mc["section_"+i];
// put the MC in an array
_root.section[i] = curItem;
if (i == 0) {
curItem._x = 0;
} else {
curItem._x = content_mc._width+1;
}
itemDepth++;
}


*edit for some reason a piece of the for loop wont display in this message...

your for loop is missing a bit- the less than symbol, and a i++

I guess this is the bit in the edit.

what sort of content are you trying to pull in? text, images, attached movies? or are you just adding mre section? post what you are pulling in/doing, and I'll help you fix it. or better yet, post your fla
