Hey kirupa folks!

OK I have made a flash intro for my website and its about 280k, so I want 56k users to be able to skip it and go onto the website, I’ve added my “Skip Intro” button and it works fine, I just need to know how to get the flash intro to stop loading when they click on it. Once they click Skip Intro I just want the intro window to close, and the website to appear in a new window. thx for any suggestions,

John

you could load the intro as an external swf, then just have the ‘skip intro’ button remove that level or target.
