so im working on a game in flash cs3- and ive hit a bit of a snag with the actionscript. i have a 30-something frame movie that automatically plays- and i have a movieclip within that movie with a button on frame 1, and an animation that i want to play should the user click the button at any time whilst they are watching the movie. i have a stop function on frame one, and the standard code
on(release){
_root.nextFrame(); }
on the button. the problem im having is that I want the button to play only the animation within the movieclip, and i want the movie to play from start to end regardless of whether the user has clicked the button, so that the animation would be played on top of the movie. but when I click the button it plays the next frame in the timeline of the movie and not the next frame of the animation within the movieclip
id be really grateful if anyobdy could help. im using actionscript 2 btw
