I did this Kirupa tutorial on how to set up and email form: [URL=http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/flash\_php\_email.htm]email form tutorial

The only thing I changed was " \_root" to “\_parent” where the form MC is nested in another MC rather than being on the main time line.

Here is the code I have attached to the form MC:

onClipEvent(data) {  
// show welcome screen  
\_parent.nextFrame();  
}

The form works but there is a very LONG lag before it goes to the frame with the confirmation on it (the next frame). I tested it in Safari and it works fine–no lag. The lag only takes place in Explorer 5.2 on a Mac. I’m not able to test it on a pc…so I don’t know what’s happening there…

Can the lag be fixed by modifying the action script?

If not, how do I make it go to a “wait” frame and, subsequently from there to the “confirmation” frame?
