a numbers puzzle?

[Geoff Cox]

Hello,

say I have events numbered 1 to 7 and wish to prevent all except the
current one.

ie
when 1 allowed prevent 2-7
when 2 allowed prevent 1 and 3-7
when 3 allowed prevent 1-2 and 4-7
when 4 allowed prevent 1-3 and 5-7
when 5 allowed prevent 1-4 and 6-7
when 6 allowed prevent 1-5 and 7
when 7 allowed prevent 1-6

how do I do this in Javascript?

Cheers

Geoff

if (eventNumber != currentEventNum ber) {
disallowEvent() ;
}

Now, for us to do anything less generic, you should supply more detail.

Lasse,

Thanks for the above - I am using

for (var count=1;count<t ;count++){
if (count != t) {
soundManager.st op('mySound'+co unt);
document.getEle mentById('IMG'+ (count)).src=pl ayed2.src;
}
}

Which doesn't quite work as it stops counting up once the count is not
equal to t. How do I make the count continue?

Cheers

Geoff

Lasse,

I think I've got it right now! I need count < 7 not count < t.

Cheers

ah! should have been count < 8 ie 1 more than the number of events.
