Can someone please provide a short example of how to use this?

mySoundObject.onLoad = callbackFunction

Thanks.

Actually, onLoad **IS** a callback function. You have to use it that way

```auto
mySoundObject.onLoad = function() {
   // Do whatever you want it to do
}

```

Callback functions are simply a way to declare handlers on the fly.

I hope it helps.

Hmmm… that’s what I tried in an onEnterFrame loop, having the function be a simple trace, but no joy. I’ll putz with it some more. Thanks.
