Hi everyone... thanks in advance for the help...
// THE CODE
aObjectNames = new Array;
for(i=0;i<35;i++){
	aObjectNames[i] = ''press_icon''+i;
}
for(i=0;i<aObjectNames.length;i++){
	new Effect.Opacity(aObjectNames[i],{duration: 0,transition: 
Effect.Transitions.linear,from: 1.0, to: 0.0});
}
// THE PROBLEM
The array is populated with the right values... I can also insert the value 
directly into the Effect.Opacity statement like:
new Effect.Opacity(''press_icon15'', {...
But if I use it as above with the array value it breaks... I''ve
actually
seen and resolved this problem before I think but for some reason today its 
just killing me... any help would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks!

hi, maybe the problem is in aObjectNames = new Array; should be aObjectNames = new Array(); On 7/26/06, G r U M P <grump604-PkbjNfxxIARBDgjK7y7TUQ@public.gmane.org> wrote:> > Hi everyone... thanks in advance for the help... > > // THE CODE > aObjectNames = new Array; > for(i=0;i<35;i++){ > aObjectNames[i] = ''press_icon''+i; > } > > for(i=0;i<aObjectNames.length;i++){ > new Effect.Opacity(aObjectNames[i],{duration: 0,transition: > Effect.Transitions.linear,from: 1.0, to: 0.0}); > } > > // THE PROBLEM > The array is populated with the right values...

Not sure why that breaks; nothing is screaming at me. However, you may just want to use Element.setOpacity if you don''t want it to be a fade effect. It just immediately sets the opacity to the desired setting. I believe this is how you''d write it: Element.setOpacity(aObjectnames[i], 0); Greg> -----Original Message----- > From: rails-spinoffs-bounces-1W37MKcQCpIf0INCOvqR/iCwEArCW2h5@public.gmane.org[mailto:rails-spinoffs-> bounces-1W37MKcQCpIf0INCOvqR/iCwEArCW2h5@public.gmane.org] On Behalf Of G r U M P > Sent: Wednesday, July 26, 2006 12:54 AM > To: rails-spinoffs-1W37MKcQCpIf0INCOvqR/iCwEArCW2h5@public.gmane.org > Subject: [Rails-spinoffs] Silly little bug... should be an easy one... > > Hi everyone... thanks in advance for the help... > > // THE CODE > aObjectNames = new Array; > for(i=0;i<35;i++){ > aObjectNames[i] = ''press_icon''+i; > } > > for(i=0;i<aObjectNames.length;i++){ > new Effect.Opacity(aObjectNames[i],{duration: 0,transition: > Effect.Transitions.linear,from: 1.0, to: 0.0}); > } > > // THE PROBLEM > The array is populated with the right values...

Use:
aObjectNames.each(function(o){$(o).setOpacity(0)});
