I have two frames: in the first one is an mc that is a holder for a dynamic animation. The second frame has other stuff. The problem is that whenever I go from the second frame back to the first frame, the animation gets reset. I want it to start once, and just keep going from there on.

Here's the code within the holder mc:
Code:
for(i=0; i<8; i++) {
	mc = this.attachMovie(type, 'MC'+i, 
							 this.getNextHighestDepth());
	mc.onEnterFrame = function() {
		if( this._x < -175 ) {
			this.remove();
			numClips--;
		}
		this._x -= speed;
	};
}

this.onEnterFrame = function() {
	if( numClips < 8 ) {
		mc = this.attachMovie(type, 'MC'+rem, 
							   this.getNextHighestDepth());
		mc.onEnterFrame = function() {
			if( this._x < -175 ) {
				this.remove();
			}
			this._x -= speed;
		};
		numClips++;
	}
}
