Hi,

Thank you for not deleting this thread as it kept me from having to start a new one. I am tired of being the forum janitor and all the spam that is allowed to continue in this forum. I will be...

Hi,

Depending on the timeline you want to manipulate, you would use either "this" or "_root" ... or an instance name of a target movieclip...

What version of flash are you using? If you notice the original post date of this thread, it is a couple years old. The base language this was written for is AS2. It won't work if your using a newer...

Hi,

First I kind of need to know where you are scripting wise.... Do you understand how to populate the LoadVars object I posted above from an external text file? If you know how to do that, you...

Hi,

I don't download files as I am using an older version of flash. However, I see a couple possible issues. A LoadVars object would be a better choice than the loadVariables method and the POST...

Something like this should work, however... it does not account for repeats...

Hi,

You can try an onload method, but you cant toggle a movieclip timeline until the movieclip has fully loaded. The way you have it coded, I suspect the object is not instantiated before the code...

Hi,

It is a matter of telling the movieclip to play after the animation....on the last keyframe of the animation add a stop action and tell the other movieclip to play. You can then send the...
