Hello,

Let me start out by apologizing for Flash newb-ness. I'm an IT guy that was tasked with helping our Flash designers.

Here's the issue: They developed an animated SWF file that they are publishing on an HTML page. They need to add a "control bar" to the SWF that allows for pausing, starting, and restarting the SWF. It also needs to display a "progress bar". I really hope I am describing these things with the right terms!

What's the best way to go about doing this? Will it require Action Script?

It needs to be a SWF file, because the animation has portions that are clickable, taking you to different SWF files.

Thanks!

Eric
