hi guys, i 'm trying out the flash CS3. I just can’t seem to stop the playhead now!! the “stop()” instruction on a frame sitting on the main timeline does not work anymore. sorry it’s a dumb question, but i looked in the documentation and they reorganized actionscript so much that i don’t know what’s what…

thank you,

alex
