    Hey thanks a bunch!! the problem seems so hard
    till you get the answer HA!!

    I will change it and put a stop action in it, (although I thought I had done that?)

    but I also have a error coming up that says...

    Line 2
    Char 29
    Error syntax error
    Code 0

    Thanks for your help,
    Tator

    no problem, I'm not too hot on error codes, but try checking line2 character 29 of any actionscript, you may have something that shouldn't be there or not have something that should

    stop action

    It worked fine except for loading so I decided to put a preloader on it.
    I have a stop action at the end of the main moive, do I need to add one to the preloader area also.
    I mean, I didnt have the looping problem till i put in the preloader?? will try it out anyway, thanks for your help..

    I think that you may need to add stop actions to the ends of each movieclip that you have used. When I click on the pawprints (links) they appear but then it loops back to the beginning of the main movie again without pressing the back button..
