AS3 Value-search an Array using indexOf()

Question

In the below code, indexOf() is always returning -1. The array being searched definately has the values within.

We've tried converting the checked integer into a string in case the array has string formats within, no luck there either.

If anybody could shed any light that would be great!

AS3

var c:int = 0; var storedCachesShared:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("cacheStore"); var storedCaches:Array = storedCachesShared.data.cacheArray; trace(storedCaches); // 1, 2 trace(storedCaches.indexOf(c+1)); // Always returns -1 if(storedCaches.indexOf(c+1) < 0){ storedCaches.push([c+1]); storedCachesShared.flush(); }

Many thanks, Nick

This line looks problematic. It is adding an Array (as you surrounded it with []) to the end of the existing Array:

storedCaches.push([c+1]);

I think you mean to add an int, so you need this:

storedCaches.push(c+1);

indexOf is returning -1 because it is looking for an int but storedCaches is an Array of Arrays.
