This is really quite easy.

I'm assuming you can correctly create a button.

Open the Action Script Editor. Then create a variable (I'll call it $var1).

Then you assign it an initial value for when the movie starts:
$var1 = 0;

Now, select the button and add the following:

on(release){
if($var1=='0'){
holder_mc.loadMovie("movie1.swf");
$var1 = '1';
}
else{
$var1 = '0';
holder_mc.loadMovie("movie2.swf");
}
}

Then test your movie. It should work, I may have my action script mixed up with php, but I'm pretty sure that's correct. Your editor has to be in the non-automated mode (Expert Mode).

Hope I helped you.

I've attached the fla file so you can see it. It includes the two small movie clips that you need to export prior to viewing. And you'll be able to view it here as well: [ Register or login to view links on this board. ]

I have no idea..... I'll try and attach it again....

~Brett

Then again, I guess I can't add that as an attachment. I'll just upload the FLA and give you a direct link.

so what is wrong with this code now

on (release) {
if ($line == '0') {
_root.whiteline._visible= false
$line = '1';
} else {
$line == '1';
_root.whiteline._visible= true

}
}


I have set the variables in the frame
