I know this one’s easy on you guys…
How do you loop a sound and control it by a toggle button. I want my sound to automatically load when the movie clip loads.
anyone?:moustache

file/import
then on the properties pannel, you can set it to the amount of times that you want it to loop.

Actually not. but I can use it anyway.
What I need is a script for my toggle button. The music must play forever upon loading of the site. My button is a movie clip with an off/on buttons in it. If you click on the off button, the music must stop and that button will be replaced by an “on” button. (like a toggle switch).
I already made the buttons. Just the action script to stop and play the music.
