Hello...

Here is a little something you can use to do that. You will just have to adapt it to whatever system you are using.


// SETUP ARRAY TO HOLD MOVIE NAMES
var movieNames = new Array();
movieNames[0] = "movieOne_mc";
movieNames[1] = "movieTwo_mc";
movieNames[2] = "movieThree_mc";
movieNames[3] = "movieFour_mc";
movieNames[4] = "movieFive_mc";

// GENERATE RANDOM NUMBER BETWEEN 0 AND 4
randomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random()*(5-0))+0

// PLAY MOVIE FUNCTION BASED ON RANDOM NUMBER
playMovie = function(index){
_root[movieNames[index]].play();
}

// CALL PLAY MOVIE FUNCTION AND PASS RANDOM NUMBER
playMovie(randomNumber);


So anyways, hope that helps!
