While Designing one movie i've created two movies(using ctrl+f8 whichch we generally use to create new symbols) and i've placed those movies in the first frame of the main movie. For the main movie as part of actions i gave i control like clicking on the button will take you to next frame.
Problem: My problem is that i want the movies that i placed in first frame should run only once and after running for the first time it should stop. i tried deleting movie from frame using _root.delete..... but no luck...

I thought I had a handle on the timer class (even just a beginners understanding), but I'm having trouble with it.I have an event listener for the timer and it starts fine i get a delay, then a tween,but when I place a myTimer.stop();in the fuction the listener called (to stop it) it dosent stop.it will repeat placing the first image, and then call the first function again
......Wait its placing the first image in (a couple of lines before the start), so Its restarting the whole movie, not just the function?
myTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, tweenone) myTimer.start(); function tweenone (event:Event):void[code]...........

I'm able to accomplish this in a local environment by checking current location. But I don't want the movie to stop if it is already in the desired location, in this case the specified URL. Will the movie play if the current location is equal to the speficied URL? How do I define the URL, absolute or relative path?

I have used Flash CS3 for a while, and just upgraded to CS4...This is where i am either missing something, or just not looking in the right place.. I have a basic stage...4 graphics in the clip ( converted to graphic symbols ), each on their own layer..Each layer is using a motion tween.
What i would like to find out how to do is that when the clip gets to the end, to just stop. At the moment, when i upload the .SWF file to a webpage, its running in a loop, continuous....I used to do this in CS3 by adding a " stop() " command on the last keyframe....How do i now get the movie to stop in CS4?? I am at a lost, even after trawling the internet for hours today...

I am looking for a strip of coding to stop the movie on a thumbnail click, so the pictures can just be browsed through instead of playing automatically.

var auto_play:Boolean = true; // true (OR) false var auto_play_duration:Number = 6400; // 1 second equals 1000 var folder:String = "photos/";
