Hi there ,

I am building a flash website atm. What I wanna do is: on mouse release = play
the animation
and once it has come to the last frame of the animation make the playhead skip
to a different frame.
Can anyone help me plz?

You can place a gotoAndPlay() or movieClipName.play() method in the last
frame of the movieClip that you play, or, you can monitor the clip's
play and when its finished, execute the gotoAndPlay() or
movieClipName.play() method then. That sort of function might look
something like this:

buttonClip.onRelease = function() {
movieClip.play();
movieClip.onEnterFrame = function() {
if(movieClip._currentframe >= movieClip._totalframes) {
gotoAndPlay(newLocationOnTimeline);

// or
// movieClipName.play();
delete movieClip.onEnterFrame;
}
}
}
