I have been using this script in the main timeline to disable buttons except I require my flash for flash 5, and the script no longer works, does anyone know of an alternative method for disable buttons until a desired frame?

current action script is

[AS]

MovieClip.prototype.enableButton = function() {  
for (var name in this) {  
if (this[name] instanceof MovieClip) {  
this[name].enableButton(arguments[0]);  
} else if (this[name] instanceof Button) {  
this[name].enabled = arguments[0];  
}  
}  
};  
navigationBar.onEnterFrame = function() {  
this.\_currentframe == this.\_totalframes ? this.enableButton(true) : this.enableButton(false);  
};

[/AS]

thank you 🙂
