movieclips, buttons and arrays - oh the joys

I am having such an issue working with arrays, im not great at fpash but decided to try a different approach to writing out the same functions for different buttons over and over again.

The plan is meant to be:

6 movieclip buttons on stage (markers) and 6 movieclip boxes on stage (panels). click a marker and it plays the fade in animation within the panel.

access/call the close button.onRelease function; location within the animated movieclip of the original panel movieclip (p1.p1_an.close_btn) to then call rewindframes(); to fade out the panel back to square one again.

repeat for all 6 buttons and clips.

Here is my code. i know its probably got something to do with strings and converting values to objects etc but i have tried so many things i just cannot get it to work.

please help

stop();
var myMarker = new Array (marker1, marker2, marker3, marker4, marker5, marker6);
var myPanel = new Array(p1, p2, p3, p4, p5, p6);
//***************************//
// Markers buttons
//***************************//
for (var i = 1; i < myMarker.length; i++)
{
    myMarker.onRelease = function()
    {
        play();//fadeout markers
        
        playPanel(myPanel); // play panel 1 to 6 depending on marker clicked    
        
        this[myPanel + "." myPanel + "_an"].close_btn.onRelease = function() //location of close button example - p1.p1_an.close_btn
        {
            rewindFrames(myPanel); // function to rewind frames of panel fade in animation back to frame 0;
        };
    };
}
//***************************//
// Play Panel
//***************************//
function playPanel(panelName)
{
    panelName.play();
}
//***************************//
// Rewind Panel
//***************************//
function rewindFrames(panelName)
{
    panelName.onEnterFrame = function()
    {
        if (panelName._currentframe != 1)
        {
            panelName.prevFrame();
        }
        else
        {
            panelName.stop();
            delete this["onEnterFrame"];
        }
    };
}
//***************************//
// Fade in Markers
//***************************//
function fadeInMarkers()
{
    onEnterFrame = function ()
    {
        if (_currentframe != 30)
        {
            prevFrame();
        }
        else
        {
            stop();
            delete this["onEnterFrame"];
        }
    };
