getdate to jump in the timeline?

[gutt666]

What I'm trying to do is jumping in the timeline of an MC depending on what day of the month it is, eg like today is 18 my MC will jump to frame 18 of my timeline:::

I'm trying with this:

var today_date: Date = new Date();
var date_str:String = today_date.getDate()


I'm doing this to convert my date in a string that i can pass to a gotoAndStop(string) ?????

getDate() returns a number. Your variable "date_str" won't except it because it isn't a string. You could make it a string by using String(today_date.getDay()), but since you're using the code to send your movie to a numbered frame it would be better to just keep it as a number. So try the following code instead.

var today_date:Date = new Date();
var date_str:Number = today_date.getDate();
trace(date_str);
