Is there a way to cancel a function? I seem to be stuck on my own code. I am using an onClipEvent(enterFrame) to call a function to detect input from the user, to move a character around the screen, and on another layer (but in the same frame) I am calling that function. I want to cancel this ‘after’ I do a setInterval.

Is there a way? Or what I said was vague question? Please help.
