AS3: Dynamic Variable Names


Cryzabey

Recommended Posts

I'm attempting to play songs dynamically in AS3, but I'm having a little bit of trouble. At the very bottom I've included the portion of my script that focuses around the audio.The audio plays if:

songPlayer = song1.play();

But not if:

var playMe = ["song"+currentSong".play();"];			trace(playMe);			songPlayer = [playMe].play();

Basically, I can't get it to play my audio unless I specify the sound. Any attempts at trying to make it dynamic are less than fruitful. Any/all help is appreciated [:
