hi,  
i can’t seem to get the on(unload) movieclip function to work, when i leave the frame a movie clip is in i want it to perform a fade out, is there an on(exitframe) command, or something, this is what i’ve tried:

onClipEvent (unload) {  
this.gotoAndPlay (2);  
}  
//where frame 2 is the fade out animation of that clip.

any help would be great!

thanks
