I posted this on the ActionScript forum, but so far no bites... anyone want to
take a crack at this?

Hello there. I'm using David Morris's Creating a Web Site using Flash Book. I
know, it's my first time, but it's still fun. Anyhoo, I'm on pg. 68 and I'm
trying to add pauses after some text zooms in before it zooms out. Here's my
ActionScript for the first Keyframe:

stop();
pauseAnim = setInterval(this,"nextFrame",5000);

then the next frame/keyframe has

clearInterval(pauseAnim);
play();

Then I insert a blank keyframe and attempt to repeat the process on the
remaining text. When I hit enter, the text doesn't pause. The ActionScript
panel said everything is cool... HELP!!! Any tidbits would be extremely
appreciated, thanks!!
