I’m having trouble getting this to work properly. I want the ‘box\_grow’ function to run, wait one second and then ‘logo\_mc.play’.  
I’ve messed the code up trying a few things, here is my last try

```auto
//Intro animation of box growing and nav

box_grow(gray_outline);

var intervalID:Number;
gray_outline.onEnterFrame = function() {
clearInterval(intervalID);
intervalID = setInterval(function () {
logo_mc.play();
clearInterval(intervalID);
}, 1000);
};

```

Any suggestions?
