.swf file I want to plaay on roll over but only once

[rlcohen]

Hi,
I want an .swf file to play while in one of my movies but only on roll over and stop either as I move off the movie or after the movie has run once. I am new to action script but here is what I have so far.
onClipEvent (load) {
stop();
}
on (rollOver) {
play();
}

So, this plays the movie but continues on and on....

Any help appreciated.

TIA

hey. I'm trying to figure out what you are after.

If you only want the rollover to play once, you will need to set a variable in an if statement as such:

on (rollOver) {
if (playOnce == 0) {
playOnce = "1";
play();
}
}

At the begining of the movie you will need to set playOnce to 0. This way the button will know the value is 0 when the rollOver script is executed.
