How to write a gotoAndPlay with the addition of a variable

So I've defined my variable:

_global.current = 1;

And below i am accessing an MC called 'carousel_holder', which has an MC named 'bar' and inside this MC is a final MC named 'bar1'.

So ive tested my path and can hard code it fine, so its not a paths issue but i think my syntax is incorrect:

_root.carousel_holder+".bar"+current.gotoAndPlay(" start");


Thanks in advance.

Try this

Code:

---

carousel_holder.bar.bar1.gotoAndPlay(" start");

---

Hi ilike2,

Thanks for your reply, If i hard-code it as you suggest it works fine, but it needs to include the variable and the string as below:

_global.woteva = 1;

_root.carousel_holder+".bar"+woteva.gotoAndPlay(" start");


Thanks,
Ben.

so that the actual path its going to is:

_root.carousel_holder.bar1.gotoAndPlay("start");

fixed it:

_root.carousel_holder[woteva].gotoAndPlay("start");

Cheers,
Ben.
