I'm using KoolMoviesm and I can't get the actionscript working. I want a button that when pressed, goes to the next frame. instead, I have a frame with a button, and then it immediately goes to the next frame. is there anything wrong with my script

Code:
 on(release)
{
nextFrame();
}

Have you tried pausing the frame that has the button on it?
 
I added an action that was supposed to stop the movie, but it just went on to the next frame
 
Well, first figure out how to pause (stop) the move on the desired frame, and then it will be easier (1 step at a time) :smile: I am not sure how koolmoviesm works personally, but there should be tutorials for it somewhere. Also, do you not like flash? There are a ton of resources on how to use flash.
 
okay, I got it now.
