section="section0"

i have to compare this variable to receive the number 0

i need this to know in wich section my director was

not sure if I know exactly what you're asking, but if you want to extract the number from the string+number you can use
section=number(substring(7));

Arraysection = new Array("section0", "section1", "section2", "section3", "section4", "section5", "section6");
section = "section3";
open = 0;
ppstatut = 1;
function foward () {
for (i=0; i<Arraysection.length; i++) {
gsection = i+1;
if (section == Arraysection[i]) {
trace (gsection);
break;
} else {
continue;
}
}
markeur="lingo: go to "+"\""+ArraySection[gsection]+"\""
