Is there a way to return the value of the frame labels?

I want to create a list of all the frame labels to use as a navigation tool.

Thanks.

again, no. you cannot use a.s.1.0 and you cannot use a.s. 2.0 to access frame labels. a.s. 3.0 does allow frame label access as explained by ns.

but if you only have 4 frame labels, you can just hardcode those frame numbers in an array, select a random array index and goto that frame number.

In AS3, it's extremely simple:

this.currentLabels is an array of FrameLabels with name and frame properties.

Ok - so is there a way to randomly select a frame label along a timeline using AS1 or AS2? I have 4 labels along approx 2500 frames that I need to randomly go to on load. Just a random quote rotator. I'm currently using this:
labelselect = random(_currentframe)+1100;
_root.allquotes.gotoAndPlay(labelselect);

Thanks ...
