I have made a couple of images on each frame with a stop command every frame. I ask the flash to go next frame after every 2 secs. So it’ll show image frame by frame every 2 sec with the setInterval command.
In the setInterval, i call a function to clear the interval and goto next frame.
I load this swf in another main swf. but when i unload it by pressing a button,it keep on jump to next frame after certain of time.
Since in the main flash, i have button set to jump to spesific frame by name. it mess up my work!
How to solve this problem by preventing it from looping?
Thanx in advance!!

i tried to put clearInterval exactly like I put in the function(that loaded swf)in the main button. but i cant work. I wonder what went wrong…
the clearInterval only works when i put in the swf alone.
but when i loaded it into other swf, it seem it keep continue looping(jump to next frame coz in the function i ask it to go next frame) after certain times after i unload it.
well, before i unload this file,i put in the clearInterval again( with same Interval ID and so on) once I press the button. but it’s like nothing effect on it.
Help please!

This is my idea of fla.
I don’t wanna run it frame by frame, but by using time.
Thanx again!
