Dynamic Buttons from XML

[mbritton]

I'm duplicating movieclips with buttons inside them. I want the buttons to be assigned a dynamic getURL based on a value from XML. Does anyone know of or have a solution for this before I reinvent the wheel?

Here's what I've come up with so far:

// Do duplication of movieclip with button on its timeline
yourMovie.duplicateMovieClip("movie"+cClipCount, aNumber);
for (i=0; i<=anArray.length; i++) {
	// Assign an action dynamically to the button inside the movieclip with a handler??
	this["movie"+cClipCount].onRelease = function() {
		loadMovie("images/" + fileName[i] + ".jpg", _root.JPGtarget);
	}
}

Do a simple thing...
Create an array with handlers, another one with the pages you wish to jump (or in your case the movie U wish to load).
create a button with your script which will be duplicated
Add an ID to all your buttons.

//_level0
id=-1;

//button action
onClipEvent(load){
_root.id++;
btn_id=_root.id;
handler=eval(handlerArray[id]);
}
