loadVariables and arrays....

[BadZodiac]

New to actionscript (wrote my first script yesterday), I have a question regarding multidimensional arrays and the loadVariables function.

Is it possible to load the array with the callout in the data.txt file as:

array=[[1,2,3],[4,5,6],[7,8,9]]&

Will this load the array or di I have to populate each array slot separately?

Thanks

You can't load arrays as variables from a text file.

ie:

&varname=[[1,2,3],[4,5,6],[7,8,9]]&

You can only load them as name value pairs. You will have to put them into an array after they are loaded.

If you're using Flash MX the LoadVars object makes it easier as all loaded variables become properties of the LoadVars object.

I think I may have found my answer
