Play frame for 30 seconds, then gotoAndPlay();

[LEFT][COLOR=#333333][FONT=arial]Ok, I can’t figure out how to make this work. I am working in AS2, and am looking for a code that allows me to stop the frame (which is easy: stop():wink: and then make that frame “play” if you will for 30 seconds, and then gotoAndPlay(“nextframe”). Is this even possible? I know there’s a getTimer(); code, but I have no idea how it works. Any help would be great!

(I have animations going on in the different frames through movie clips, not on the timeline. Basically trying to make a “movie” with flash)
