Hey there all
Im hoping someone can help me...im in dire straits with a site-im a relative newbie to flash...and have built a site that contains 5scenes....each scene is a different topic. On the 2nd scene i have 6 buttons, which are going to be hit to start a movie. Now the movie in question is on the stage itself and in the layers....
On the button i have placed the actionscript as follows:
on (press) {
tellTarget (_root.mcab) {
play()
}
On the movie itself i have placed the following script:
onClipEvent (load) {
stop();
}
This doesnt work...in fact when i hit the button, it actually skips to another scene entirely.
PLEASE can someone help me!!!id be SO SO greatful!!!
also-i bought a book today Flash MX 2004 Accelerated-by YoungJin. Im using Flash MX....i didnt know there was a difference between MX and 2004...silly me...the cd with the book contains flash files that wont open. Im returning it tommorow...does anyone recommend a good Flash Book that covers a wide selection of areas....????
Cheers and thanks in advance
