Hi,

I’ve got an app based on four frames with seperate events on each frame. The app is powered in AS3 and every frame calls stop(); and everything works well but the swf file in flash player has a problem where if the user hits control \> play it moves to the next frame.

How can I stop this? A simple conditional would prevent it but errors are triggered this way from ongoing functions from a previous frame.

Please help.

PS Really value this forum!
