How to make sound pause temporarily

[pk_trek]

I need to know how to simply pause the music so I can resume it later. How can I make that possible? Please and Thank you.

put the music streaming ina movie clip with an instance name of "music"
have another movie clip onstage called "pause"

within "pause"

have a stop action on frame one..
and on a frame of your choice (the higher the frame.. the longer the pause)

code:

---

_root.music.play();

_root.pause.gotoAndStop(1);

---

create a button to call up the pause MC
and put this on it

code:

---

on(release){

_root.music.stop();

_root.pause.gotoAndPlay(2);

}
