random color question

hope you can help me

i have made a menu, now i try to give them different bg colors on release.

this works good. i made 5 variables with the rgb values etc.

now i want to make the colors random

to test this before i make the random function i made this:

on (release) {
/:farbegeben = Number (/:color add 4);
_root.actions.farbe.setRGB(/:farbegeben);
}

the variable output is this

_level0.farbegeben = 1.#QNAN

instead of

_level0.farbegeben = 16751052 or 0xff99cc


the variable is /:color4

thx for trying to help me

Hi..
Place this code on the first frame of your menu MC:

function randColor () {
c = new Color(this);
r = (Math.random()*256);
g = (Math.random()*256);
b = (Math.random()*256);
c.setRGB(r << 16 | g << 8 | b);
}

Now target it using:

on (release) {
menu.randColor();
}

Good luck.

thx a lot man
