How can I add the variable i to the end of the name imgSrc variable?

repeat with i from 0 to 5
set imgSrc to execute javascript ""
end repeat
#2

Just use the & operator

set imgSrc to execute javascript "" & (i as text)

however the coercion to text of the integer can be inferred

set imgSrc to execute javascript ("" & i)

That doesn’t work. More info bellow:

I need this (imgSrc0 variable):

display dialog "Variable:" & imgSrc0 buttons {"OK"} default button 1			
...
#5

I understand, this is not possible. You cannot compose variable names at runtime.

This works perfectly:

Created by Perplexity.ai:

set imgSrcList to {}
repeat with i from 0 to 5
    set imgSrcValue to execute javascript ""
    set end of imgSrcList to imgSrcValue
end repeat

repeat with j from 1 to count of imgSrcList
    display dialog "Variable " & (j - 1) & ": " & (item j of imgSrcList) buttons {"OK"} default button 1
end repeat

You have to write English well before program.

repeat with i from 0 to 10
	set aScript to "set imgSrc" & (i as string) & " to " & (i as string) & "
	display dialog \"Variable:\" & imgSrc" & (i as string) & " buttons {\"OK\"} default button 1"
	
	tell application "Script Editor"
		set aDoc to make new document
		tell front document
			set contents to aScript
			compile
		end tell
	end tell
end repeat

Yes, but this doesn’t compose variable names at runtime. It puts values into a list.
And this is not what you asked in the question.
