I have seen umpteen different guides on how to make a play/pause button in flash. and i cannot get it to work. I think i may pull my hair out soon.
basically- i have made an mc which sits on the main timeline. i t has 2 frames, ecah of which has a stop() action in the frame. the first has a pause button with the following script attached to to the button:
on(release){
_root.stop();
gotoAndStop(2);
}
i have also tried putting in nextFrame instead of gotoAndStop() -but this is besides the point as it’s not even stopping!
in the second frame there is a play button with the following scruipt attached to it:
on(release){
_root.play();
gotoAndStop(1);
}
I think the problem may be deeper rooted because i have looked on sevral guides and they all tell me to do a similar thing.
In fact i made a button which sat on the timeline with this script
on (release) {
_root.stop();
}
and STILL nothing happened!!! someone helo me please!!
