Hi everyone!!!

I’m kind of a new to flash and working on my first webpage, the problem that I have is that i’m adding a mouse trail (took the example from KIRUPA) to my site but I would like it to stop before loading my site…any idea on how to stop it. I keep using the stop(); action but nothing…HELP!!!

Thanks a bunch!!!:3ye:

Text = “My new site!!!”;  
letters = Text.split("");  
letterformat = new TextFormat();  
letterformat.font = “Arial black”;  
letterformat.align = “center”;  
letterformat.size = “12”;  
spacing = 8;  
speed = 2;  
for (var LTR = 0; LTR\<letters.length; LTR++) {  
mc = \_root.createEmptyMovieClip(LTR+“l”, LTR);  
mc.createTextField(letters[LTR]+“t”, LTR, LTR\*spacing, 10, 20, 20);  
with (mc[letters[LTR]+“t”]) {  
text = letters[LTR];  
setTextFormat(letterformat);  
selectable = false;  
}  
if (LTR) {  
mc.prevClip = \_root[(LTR-1)+“l”];  
mc.onEnterFrame = function() {  
this.\_x += (this.prevClip.\_x-this.\_x+5)/speed;  
this.\_y += (this.prevClip.\_y-this.\_y)/speed;  
};  
} else {  
mc.onEnterFrame = function() {  
this.\_x += (\_root.\_xmouse-this.\_x+10)/speed;  
this.\_y += (\_root.\_ymouse-this.\_y)/speed;  
};  
}  
}
