I just completed the “Playing Sounds using ActionScript” tutorial. I figured out a button to rewind the sound to the begining. Is there a way to also rewind the sound, say two or three seconds each time the user clicks the rewind button?

I’ve been using Flash since v4, but haven’t ventured too far into ActionScript beyond the Movie Controls, so any help is much appreciated!
