[FONT=arial][SIZE=3]I have this script (below) and I’m using the next/prev button script to navigate back and forth. When I navigate back to the first page which has the actionscript code to load the music, it begins to load the song again and they overlap. How do I stop loading when song is already on?[/SIZE][/FONT]
