I have a swf that loads external swfs. I am trying to add a mute button to the container swf that controls the volume, so the user can mute and unmute the sound. However, I cannot figure out how to accomplish this. I cant get setVolume from AS2 to do the job. I have also tried SoundTransform.volume=0 and that didnt work. Please help thanks.
