[RESOLVED] Delete the first character in an item in an array

[Rajada]

How would I go about removing only the first character of an item in an array? All my items are strings, so for example I want to turn this:

pseudo code:

Array["01234","01234"]

to this:

Array["1234","1234"]

Or if that isn't possible, I could just turn each element into a string, modify it and re-Array it. The issue is using split(charAt(0)) isn't correct syntax. I just don't know what function to call and every search turns up only replacing specific characters, not character at a position.

Actionscript strings are immutable, which means that they cannot be changed in place. But you can replace the String in the array.

To get the substring of a String which is everything except the first letter, do:

var yString:String = myString.substring(1);

Okay, that works, thanks.
