Thanks.

Thanks for script, this has been a great help to me and somewhere to start from …

Im having some peculiar results with the deleteLayer method.

Im finding in some instances its removing the items from the array (great news) and other times its just emptying the item – which causes issues when the sort method is called.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

but i was wondering if u knew how to do the same thing but with images i already have instead of boxes?

 [ var names:Array = ["12", "11", "10", "9", "8", "7", "6", "5", "4", "3", "2", "1"]; ] 

Why the array shown from the end on the boxes. The code reads the array from the last index. Could we change that order instead of populating our array in such a manner as I do above. Any help must be appreciated.

Thanks
