I have made a menu that is populated by an XML file. It displays a list of maps when the user clicks a button. What I want is to be able to set a variable (i) to the number of the index of the menu selection and use that number to open a filename in an array named filename_ar.
I've been fooling around with Menu.IndexOf all day and I can't seem to get it to return a number.
If it could I could use:
getURL(filename_ar[i]);
If I could get a number of the node in the XML file, that would probably work as well.
