Movie clip flickering on button press

aight so here’s the deal… on my main time line i got a movie clip with the instance name of “textbox” (disregard quotes of course). I put a stop action on the first frame of the movie clip and the last frame so it doesn’t show up during the normal playing of the main timeline.

on a button i have the following action:

on (release) {
_root.textbox.play();
}

aight… so the first time i press the button the the movie clip plays fine… but if i press the same button again, the movie clip will just flicker… like it resets itself, so then the next time i press the same button, the movie clip plays fine again… and so on and so forth.

Can anyone tell me why it does that little flicker???

The problem is that you have 2 stop actions in your movieclip, take out the last one and it should be fine. =)

ahhh simple enough…makes sense now that i think about it.
