Play() doesnt work

1

i made a slider that can slide the main timeline while running the swf.
the first function slides scales the bar and moves the handle along the path:


sliderF = function () {
 this.onEnterFrame = function() {
  currentFrame = _currentframe;
  slider._xscale = Math.floor((_currentframe*100)/totalFrames);
  handle._x = slider._width+slider._x;
 };
};
sliderF();

the next function drags the handle and slides the timeline:


handle.onPress = function() {
 delete onEnterFrame;
 handle.startDrag(true, 240, 10, 64, 10);
 this.onEnterFrame = function() {
  r = ((handle._x-67)*100)/sliderFull._width;
  currentFr = Math.floor(totalFrames*r/100);
  gotoAndStop(currentFr);
 };
 
};

to stop the drag i am using this:


handle.onRelease = handle.onReleaseOutside=stopDrag;

the problem is that i cant make it play again after i draged the handle…

simple play() doesnt work
any Ideas?
