Skipping Dialogue

[Adidaas]

I've been using the script
onEnterFrame = function(){
if(Key.isDown(Key.SPACE)){
_root.play();
}
}
to skip the dialogue in my movie, but when the space button is held down it tends to screw up the sounds and etc. I tried just using
if(Key.isDown(Key.SPACE))
{_root.nextFrame();}
but for some strange reason that doesn't work. Does that script not apply to 2.0 or what?

This codes makes it so you have to tap space, rather than hold it down to proceed. I think it's what you're after.

SkipDialogue = new Object();
onEnterFrame = function () {
	SkipDialogue.onKeyDown = function() {
		if ((Key.isDown(Key.SPACE)) && (!pressed)) {
			pressed = true;
			_root.nextFrame();
		}
	};
	SkipDialogue.onKeyUp = function() {
		pressed = false;
	};
};
Key.addListener(SkipDialogue);

Not exactly what I was looking for, though that's pretty useful, I might use that later. Guess I should explain it better, basically rather having someone click a little arrow to proceed the dialogue I'd perfer to just be able to push the space bar, not tap, to proceed it.
