to mutch code?

[briggitte]

Can anyone help to get this code a little bit smaller?
I have to put in this code 100 times and maybe it can be mutch more compact
if (Number(_root.fillred) == 0)
{
_root.herhaalkans.gotoAndPlay(2);
_root.tabel20.gotoAndPlay(40);
}
else if (Number(_root.fillred) == 1)
{
_root.herhaalkans.gotoAndPlay(2);
_root.tabel20.gotoAndPlay(43);
}
else if (Number(_root.fillred) == 2)
{
_root.herhaalkans.gotoAndPlay(2);
_root.tabel20.gotoAndPlay(46);
}
else if (Number(_root.fillred) == 3)
{
_root.herhaalkans.gotoAndPlay(2);
_root.tabel20.gotoAndPlay(49);
}
else if (Number(_root.fillred) == 4)
{
_root.herhaalkans.gotoAndPlay(2);
_root.tabel20.gotoAndPlay(52);
}
else if (Number(_root.fillred) == 5)
{
_root.herhaalkans.gotoAndPlay(2);
_root.tabel20.gotoAndPlay(55);
}
else if (Number(_root.fillred) == 6)
{
_root.herhaalkans.gotoAndPlay(2);
_root.tabel20.gotoAndPlay(58);
}
else if (Number(_root.fillred) == 7)
{
_root.herhaalkans.gotoAndPlay(2);
_root.tabel20.gotoAndPlay(61);
}
else if (Number(_root.fillred) == 8)
{
_root.herhaalkans.gotoAndPlay(2);
_root.tabel20.gotoAndPlay(64);
}
else if (Number(_root.fillred) == 9)
{
_root.herhaalkans.gotoAndPlay(2);
_root.tabel20.gotoAndPlay(67);
}
and this go on till _root.redfill=100

Thanx

Try this:

var i:Number = (fillred) * 3 + 40;

if (Number(_root.fillred)==0) {
    _root.herhaalkans.gotoAndPlay(2);
    _root.tabel20.gotoAndPlay(i);
} 

EDIT - Soz just seen you using _root so I'm guessing this is for AS1 or 2. The above may only work in AS3. Maybe change first line to i=fillred * 3 + 40; ???

You can use a for loop to go through the variables and then break away once a match has been made.

var startNum:Number = 40;
var limit:Number = 100;
var frameDiff:Number = 3;
var checkFun:Function = function () {
	for (i=0; i<=limit; i++) {
		if (fillred == i) {
			// trace("fillred= "+fillred+", gotoAndPlay= "+(startNum+(i*frameDiff)));
			_root.herhaalkans.gotoAndPlay(2);
			_root.tabel20.gotoAndPlay(startNum+(i*frameDiff));
			break;
		}
	}
};

So to check fillred against all the possible variables (0 - 100), you just set up a way to call the checkFun function. For example, if you create a button on the stage called, "my_btn", you could use the following code to check the fillred variable when the button is clicked:

my_btn.onRelease = function() {
	checkFun();
};

Thanx both of you, it works great and mutch less code
