[Xerte] variables in dot syntax

[Dave Burnett]

Got it, but used something else you sent to do much the same thing.

I have the unique iD's assigned, it's the second part that won't go.

The first part of this won't take anything but a hardcode:

dave_4.swfFile.button._totalFrames;
or 
dave_4.swfFile.button.text = 'blah';

So even if I push the id's into an array, I can't re-use them.
