Hello All,

I have searched through the site and cannot find any help with how to pause or stop my external sound loop. I have my sound loop in the same swf as the visual analyser so I cant just ‘unload’ the movie clip or the on/off functuality leaves as well.

How do I just say ‘stop’ the movie so they CAN click on ‘on’ when they come back from visiting an outside site.

Thanx,
