i created a thumb gallary using [COLOR=blue]moviecliploader[/COLOR] and an [COLOR=blue]onLoadInit[/COLOR] function. in the [COLOR=blue]onLoadInit[/COLOR] i added an [COLOR=blue]if[/COLOR] event where i have a [COLOR=blue]return[/COLOR]; hoping it would quit the function.

```auto

if (stat == currentId) {
  //happens when thumbs is pressed from main page
  if (bigPictActive == 1) {
   stringHolder = _root.catItems0[m][1].slice(12, _root.catItems0[m][1].length);
   for (homeIndexBigPic=0; homeIndexBigPic<_root["catItems"+currentId].length; homeIndexBigPic++) {
    stringHolderB = this["catItems"+currentId][homeIndexBigPic][1].slice(12, this["catItems"+currentId][m][1].length);
    if (stringHolderB == stringHolder) {
     this.container2["tatHolder"+homeIndexBigPic]._x = 30;
     this.container2["tatHolder"+homeIndexBigPic]._y = -30;
     return;
    }
   }
  } else if (bigPictActive == 2) {
   this.container2["tatHolder"+statNum]._x = 30;
   this.container2["tatHolder"+statNum]._y = -30;
  }
 }

```

i think the return is not working?
