flash actionscript:

Hi Everyone

I am trying to loop through all the variables in an object.

The object contains variables in the following format:

storyObj = new Object();
storyObj.id_1 = "Hello"
storyObj.id_200 = "Hello"
storyObj.id_23 = "Hello"

the id's are not in any order of any kind.

any help appreciated.

Thanks

STephan

I just tried this ... one more step is missing:

storyVars = new Object();

storyVars.id_1 = "Story one"
storyVars.id_21 = "Story two"
storyVars.id_13 = "Story three"
storyVars.id_14 = "Story four"
storyVars.id_15 = "Story five"
storyVars.id_222 = "Story six"
storyVars.id_2434 = "Story seven"
storyVars.id_242424 = "Story eight"

for(i in storyVars){
trace(this.i)
}

got it:

storyVars = new Object();

storyVars.id_1 = "Story one"
storyVars.id_21 = "Story two"
storyVars.id_13 = "Story three"
storyVars.id_14 = "Story four"
storyVars.id_15 = "Story five"
storyVars.id_222 = "Story six"
storyVars.id_2434 = "Story seven"
storyVars.id_242424 = "Story eight"

trace(storyVars)

for(i in storyVars){
trace(storyVars)
}

[quoted text, click to view]

try this for the trace ...

trace("var " + i + " = " + this [ i ] );

that should then show you the variable name ( i ) and the value ( this [
i ] )
