I’m trying to create an on/off button using only one button (instead of 2 separate buttons); meaning when the user presses the button when the music is on, the music turns off & vice versa…

is there a code/coding that will enable me to perform this task?

I thank everyone for all their help 🙂

piece a cake! Use [[this]](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/sound.asp) tute for the music play&stop actions and the followong code to mkae it a toggle button!

on(release) {  
if(!music) {  
\<music play actions\>  
} else {  
\<music stop actions\>  
}
