Hi,

I’ve got the ultimate noob question here, but I’ve been tearing my hair out on it for hours.

I’ve got two tweens, and want one to start 5 secs after the other:-

numberOfBanners = 2;  
count = 0;  
num = 1;  
import mx.transitions.Tween;  
import mx.transitions.easing.\*;

function Banner(num){  
count++  
var showBanner:Tween = new Tween(“Banner1”], “\_alpha”, Strong.easeIn, 0, 100, 1, true);  
var myInterval:Number;  
showBanner.onMotionFinished = function(){  
delete this[“Banner”+num].\_accProps.silent;  
myInterval = setInterval(pauseTween, 5000);  
};  
function pauseTween() {  
showBanner2.start();  
var showBanner2:Tween = new Tween(“Banner2”, “\_alpha”, Strong.easeIn, 100, 0, 1, true);  
showBanner.onMotionFinished = function(){  
delete this[“Banner2”].\_accProps.silent;  
}  
clearInterval(myInterval);  
}  
}

Does anyone have any idea where I’m going wrong? They both occur at the same time…

Thanks in advance…
