[FONT=Arial]I’m building a simple 6 page website. I want each page to have a different background color but I’m running into a problem with the transitions between pages. I don’t want the colors to just appear from one frame to the next, I want them to fade in, kind of like an airbrushed effect. The color fades in from the upper left to the lower right. It’s a nice soft transition that I’d like on every page. I can get each page to use this transition; my problem is what is underneath the transition for each page. I need the previous pages background color to stay underneath each new page color fade. I hope I can explain this so you understand.[/FONT]

[FONT=Arial]For example Page 1 is [COLOR=red]Red[/COLOR], Page 2 is [COLOR=darkorange]Oange[/COLOR], Page 3 is [COLOR=seagreen]Green[/COLOR], Page 4 is [COLOR=blue]Blue[/COLOR], etc. Page 1 loads the initial start of the movie, giving you a red background. Then the movie stops here, all the buttons are loaded for navigation at this point (frame 10). If I click on Page 3 a green background fades over the initial Red background, looks great, exactly what I want. If I now click on Page 2, the movie snaps back to frame 10 (the Red background) and fades in the Orange. To look right, it should load over the last page clicked, in this example green. How do I get the previous pages background color to stay for the loading of the new page color?[/FONT]

[FONT=Arial]If I’m on Page 3 and go to Page 2 I need a green background under the Page 2 orange color fade, If I’m on Page 4 and go to Page 3 I need a blue background under the Page 3 green color fade. Can you see what I’m getting at? I think I need to write a variable for the button actions but I’ve never done anything like that before.[/FONT]
