Array Problem

[rhosk]

I'm creating a simple array from an xml file -

pictures = new Array();
for (var i = 1; i<=_root.Images; i++) {
	pictures[i] = _root.image_folder+xmlData.gallery[1].images[i-1].image[0].file.value;
}

This outputs my image paths fine, but for some reason, it puts a comma at the very beginning?

ie -

, images/image1.jpg,images/image2.jpg,images/image3.jpg, etc...Is there an easy way to get rid of that first comma?

Thanks anyway, splice() did the trick. Seems like a bug though.

I don't know if it would make a difference in your case, but whenever I'm asking Flash to resolve a complicated path including variables, I won't ask it to perform operations on both sides of the equal sign at the same time.

So, I'd set a temporary variable like:

nowpicture = everything on the right side of your equal sign.

pictures[i] = nowpicture

This little bit of handholding has made things easier for Flash, in my experience.
