Well, this is interesting. Certainly, three if statements in a row will execute as well as one (or five, or ten). I wonder if your attachMovie() references are inadvertently bringing new ActionScript into the mix?

In a case like this, where the code seems to be behaving in an illogical manner, it helps to break things down into smaller pieces, to troubleshoot each step in turn. So for the time being, for example, drop all the ifs but the first one (arreglo3) and make sure that one performs the way you expect.

Incidentally, you probably don’t need the new arreglo3 variable, since you can reference _root.btn3admintitle right there in the if statement:

if (_root.btn3admintitle == "falso") {
  _root.btn3.titu.text = _root.btn3admintitle;
} else {
  _root.mainMenu.peliMovie.attachMovie(
    "btn3admin",
    "btn3adminvideo",
    this.getNextHighestDepth(),
    {_x:5, _y:18}
  );
}

You may also want to put a trace() in either clause, just to make doubly sure you know how the if statement’s condition is being interpreted:

if (_root.btn3admintitle == "falso") {
  trace("btn3admintitle true");
  _root.btn3.titu.text = _root.btn3admintitle;
} else {
  trace("btn3admintitle false");
  _root.mainMenu.peliMovie.attachMovie(
    "btn3admin",
    "btn3adminvideo",
    this.getNextHighestDepth(),
    {_x:5, _y:18}
  );
}

Often by breaking down a complex goal (three ifs) into a simpler one, you can discover mistaken assumptions on your part, or otherwise see something you missed previously.

i have this script:

var arreglo3:String =_root.btn3admintitle;

var arreglo4:String =_root.btn4minsidetitle;

var arreglo5:String =_root.btn5systemtitle;

if(arreglo3 == “falso”){
_root.btn3.titu.text = arreglo3;
}
else{
_root.mainMenu.peliMovie.attachMovie(”btn3admin”, “btn3adminvideo”, this.getNextHighestDepth(), {_x:5, _y:18});
}

if(arreglo4 == “falso”){
this.btn4.titu.text = arreglo4;
}
else{
this.mainMenu.peliMovie.attachMovie(”btn4minside”, “btn4minsidevideo”, this.getNextHighestDepth(), {_x:5, _y:54});
}

if(arreglo5 == “falso”){
this.btn5.titu.text = arreglo5;
}
else{
this.mainMenu.peliMovie.attachMovie(”btn5system”, “btn5systemvideo”, this.getNextHighestDepth(), {_x:5, _y:92});
}

what i want to do is to evaluate several times different variables, wheter if they are = to “falso” or to ather string,

The problem is that when the script runs it only read the last script… the last “if”… how can i make it to read all the 3 “if’s”…?? or more?….

thanks

Sure thing! Glad this was helpful to you.

var str:String = “false”;
var boo1:Boolean = str == “true”; //everything but “true” is false
var boo2:Boolean = str != “false”; //everything but “false” is true

The above shows two different ways of considering it, if the string is “true”, or the string is not “false”. So by the first method (boo1), “happiness” would go to false, and by the second (boo2), it would go to true.
