Populating a list component from an external .txt file

[alec1241]

I need to pull a list of presenters from a .txt file and populate a list component. Here's the code I'm working on, but it's doing nothing:

stop();

loadVariables ("presenters.txt", this);

var n = totalPres;
var i = 1;

// the total nnumber of presenters

presentersListArray = new Array();

while (i < n) {
presentersListArray.push({data:"pres"+n, label:"pres"+n});
// pres+n should equal "pres1", "pres2", etc.
i++;
}

presenters.dataProvider = presentersListArray;


Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
