Accessing objects within dynamically added objects

[SCook]

Hi gang,

Here's what I need to do: I add an object to the stage via AS. This object has a dynamic text field in it called txt1. Now, as I add the object on the main MC, I also want to set the text for that textfield (txt1) inside. Now, this text is from an array, so I can't just set a var in the textfield itself becuase I am adding multiple instances of this one dynamic object.

I hope that wasn't too confusing. Here's some code:

stop();
vars = new LoadVars();
vars.action = "events";
vars.sendAndLoad(_root.url + _root.directory + _root.file, vars, "post");
vars.onLoad = function() {
    eventID = vars.eID.split("|");
    eventName = vars.eN.split("|");
    eventDate = vars.eD.split("|");
    eventFlyer = vars.eF.split("|");
    eventCount = eventID.length - 1;
    
    addEventButtons();
}

function addEventButtons() {
    yPos = -214;
    
    for (i = 0; i < eventCount; i++) {
        this.attachMovie("evList", "e" + i, i);
        this["e" + i]._x = -349;
        this["e" + i]._y = yPos;
        this["e" + i].txt1.text = eventDate[i] + "\n" + eventName[i];
        yPos += 60;
    }
}

I hope this is clear, thanks guys

this should work, il there is really a textfield name txt1 inside evList, and if you embedded the fonts...

The only thing that might be wierd about this, is that the evList object is a button object. However, this really shouldn't matter.
