Hi all,

When I use:

on (release){  
this.stop();  
getURL(“page.html”, “\_blank”);  
}

Why is it that when that new page window is loaded the background flash window then runs my

on (rollOut){  
this.play();  
}

function? I am trying to pause the timeline I am clicking from in Flash.

If I take this line out (this.play()😉 it pauses, but if I were to go that way how would I start getting my MC to play again when the user gets back to the flash window?

I dont know if this is a window focus issue or?
