[CS3] pause play pause play etc....

[photoguy82]

I was wondering how i have my movie play, then pause for a few seconds the play, then pause again and so and and so on...

right now i'm using the script:

stop();
myInterval = setInterval(doContinue, 5000);
function doContinue() {
clearInterval(myInterval);
gotoAndPlay("slideshow");
} 

problem is when i use the same script over and over it's messing up my whole project.... meaning i feel like nomatter where i'm at in the project(not all of it is a slideshow) it keeps going back to the slideshow. Please help!!!

do you mean to say: you want the movie to play a frame labelled "slideshow"(which is on your main timeline) every 5 seconds?
