does anyone know of a good tutorial or source for stopping all action within a .swf? for instance, when one item is clicked, everything fades and stops and a message appears: “click to resume”. i’ve seen a few sites like this, where this action occurs. i’d really like to know how it’s done.  
thanks so much for your time…  
best,
