Hi guys, I’m working for my website but I have a little problem here. I really need your help guys since I gotta finish this site on this week. I almost ran out of oxygen for figuring out the problem, and so I decided to seek experts’ help. Ok, here goes.

Above is my extra page. By clicking on the “judges” button, a screen will appear.

The screen itself is a component. What I want acually is not only the screen, but the video must also show up inside the component as well, like below:

The video is uploaded using a Sorenson Spark codec. And I find it impossible to include action script to hide the video using \_visible = false. I can use this \_visible = false fine to the component screen but I can’t apply it to this one. I wanna make it unseen at first and after clicking the button, the movie will appear. I also try using “stop” actionscript but it won’t work. So, the questions are:

1. How do I make the movie invisible at first(before clicking it?)
2. How do I make the movie appear simultaneously with the component screen by clciking the button? And by clicking the button once again, will make them both disappear.

Please assist this poor boy…thanks a lot!🙂
