[font=verdana, arial, helvetica][size=2]Hi,

I am using this code (within one frame) for a typewriter effect. [indent]

> TextField.prototype.typeWriter = function(str, ms) {

var me = this;  
var i = 0;  
var itv = setInterval(function () {  
me.text = str.substring(0, i);  
i+=2;  
if (i\>str.length) {  
clearInterval(itv);  
}  
updateAfterEvent();  
}, ms);  
};  
mystring = “text”;  
txt.typeWriter(mystring, 20);

[/indent]Which code should I add to go to another frame when the text is completed?

Thanks!
