i have been stuck with this for days so thought i’d try this forum.  
on the main timeline i’m trying to have an on/off music toggle button. here’s the code on the first frame:

[color=#003366]this.createEmptyMovieClip(“mcSoundHolder”, this.getNextHighestDepth());  
var sndAudio:Sound = new Sound(mcSoundHolder);[/color]  
[color=#003366]sndAudio.onLoad = function(bSucess:Boolean) {  
if(bSucess) {  
this.start();  
}  
}[/color]  
[color=#003366]mcAudioBtn.onRelease = function() {  
sndAudio.loadSound(“audio/music.mp3”, false);  
sndAudio.setVolume(100);  
sound = playing;  
if (sound==playing) {  
sndAudio.stop();  
playing = false;  
}  
if(sound!==playing) {  
sndAudio.start(0,9999);  
playing = true;  
}[/color]  
[color=#003366]};[/color]  
[color=#003366][/color]  
[color=#003366]whenever i click the toggle button it restarts the sound and downloads it again. can anyone tell me where my code is wrong or what i have to add?[/color]
