ugh why is this not working? simple onclipevent

[zoosplace]

OK here is what I'm trying to do.

I have rotating floppy disk that is triggered by a button.
When you roll over the button the floppy begins to rotate.
When you roll out the floppy will continue to rotate until you reach frame 15 where it will go to frame 1 and stop. The movie clip is assigned a name of floppy. I think the problem is with the if statement for the rollout for the onclipevent. Currently it all works but the rollout.

Any help would be appreciated.

Here is a link to the page:

Here is the action script.

First frame in flash:

stop();
_root.floppy.stopfloppy=true

Floppy disk action script:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (stopfloppy) {
gotoAndStop(1);
}
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (rolloverfloppy) {
play();
}
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (rolloutfloppy) {
if (_currentframe<14) {
_root.floppy.nextFrame();
}
if (_currentframe=15) {
_root.floppy.gotoAndStop(1);
}

}
}

Button action script:

on (rollOver) {
_root.floppy.stopfloppy=false
_root.floppy.rolloverfloppy=true
_root.floppy.rolloutfloppy=false
}
on (rollOut) {
_root.floppy.stopfloppy=false
_root.floppy.rolloverfloppy=false
_root.floppy.rolloutfloppy=true
}

on the first frame
put

_root.floppy.gotoAndStop(1)

on the button put

on (rollOver) {
	_root.floppy.move = true;
	_root.floppy.gotoAndPlay(1)
}
on (rollOut) {
	_root.floppy.move = false;
}

on the last frame of the floppy movieclip put

if (_root.floppy.move == false) {
	gotoAndStop(1);
} else {
	gotoAndPlay(1);
}

thanks you are the best.. I have been fighting this all day...
I will try it and let you know how it goes...

[zoosplace]

ok it works better than before but i did not want the rollover action to disrupt the movement if it was already in action...

what does move equal.. or what value does it hold.

I think i can figure something out but if you have the answer on top of your head it would be appreciated.

OK now it works the way I want it to...

I just put play(); in place of gotoAndPlay(1) in the button actionscript...

Thanks again... you are a life saver

which method did you end up using?

I ended up using fidodo's method. But I did like they way you did yours. I'm not sure the effects of using either way. As long as it does what I want I don't care too much about the code. Its just funny how my original code was off so much...

I guess I should pick up an actionscript book and learn it...

[euphoricGenius]

looking back and comparing they are very similar, depends on your prefernce for coding style
