Kay!..

I am making a Flash website.  
I click on a link,… lets say ‘Contact’  
The ‘Contact’ page opens.  
I click on ‘Contact’ again while it’s open,… It opens again.  
I need to know how to prevent the link from reloading each time you click it

Thanx

You could disable the button/movie clip by setting its [font=courier new]enabled[/font] property to [font=courier new]false[/font]. 🙂

you could also use a condition to see if the movie is loaded already, so this way “dumb” users wont get confused if they cant click the button again…
