Hi, I’m kind of new to actionscripting, and am looking for a few pointers.

I need to do two things:  
[list=1]  
[_]I need to insert a text page counter on each page of a movie (ex: Page 1 of 20) and code it so that if pages are added or removed it will update itself based on total pages in the movie.  
[_]I have movie clips that load on top of active buttons. As a result, the button below the loaded clip shows the hand cursor when you move the cursor in that space. How can I eliminate the active button state while the clip is loaded, and re-activate it when the clip is gone?  
[/list]All of this is targeted at flash player 6 if that matters. Thank you for all and any help.
