multiple conditions in a "for loop" ?

[katiekatie]

Can you use multiple conditions in a for loop?

For example, I am trying to attach images 1-6 to a specific movieclip, and images 7-12 to another and so on.

So my logic was to do this:

for (i=1; i<=6; i++) {
container.attachMovie("thumb"+i,"thumb"+i+"_mc",i) ;
}

for (i=1: i>6 && i<13; i++) {
container2.attachMovie("thumb"+i,"thumb"+i+"_mc",i );
}

But it's not working. Ony the top loop works.

Can someone clarify how it should be done?

You could just use a single loop, and put the selection logic inside of it. Try a variation of this:

for (i=1; i <= 15; i++) {
	if (i <= 6) {
		container1.attachMovie ("thumb" + i, "thumb" + i + "_mc", i);
	} else if (i <= 12) {
		container2.attachMovie ("thumb" + i, "thumb" + i + "_mc", i);
	} else {
		containerN.attachMovie ("thumb" + i, "thumb" + i + "_mc", i);
	}
}
