Stop while in Reverse

[Adeus]

Hello, this is my first post here. I read the archives often, but haven't had the need to post until now. Hopefully my problem can be solved, and hopefully I will be able to help others eventually.

Here is my dilemma: I have a movie clip which is controlled by two buttons; forward and reverse. Forward just makes the movie play until it reaches a stop within it. However, my reverse function ignores all stops in the movie clip and keeps playing in reverse to frame 1.

Here is the code within the reverse button;

on (press) {
   _root.onEnterFrame = function() {
         _root.portfolio.prevFrame();
         _root.portfolio.stop();
               if (_root.portfolio._currentframe == 1) {
                     delete _root.onEnterFrame;
               }
         };
}

I tried throwing this function in to no avail;

if (_root.portfolio.currentLabel.name == "stophere") {
      _root.portfolio.stop();
      delete _root.onEnterFrame;
}

It seems like something so obvious... I have been trying to fix this for hours now. Please help.

obvious.... except for that there is no currentLabel in flash.
what you could do is have an piece of actionscript on the frame you want it to stop that sets an variable to stophere = true;
then you could check in an if statement

if ( stophere == false ) 
   got to previous frame 
else 
   delete OnEnterFrame

after click the button again to make it move forward or backward, change the stopnow to false and it'll keep playing till you reach another frame with stopnow = true.

Succes.
