Flash CS4 Action script help

[smithyboy]

I have done an animation which includes a button that I want to use to start it.

I've added action script to stop the animation on the last frame, I just have no idea what action script to put in to start it when the button is pressed.

I have 14 layers + an action script layer. 7 of the layers are animated.

Any help would be much appreciated.

You can use the gotoAndPlay() method.

I'm a total noob mate. I dont fully know how to formulate the code.

I'm using this to stop the animation after 1 play -

addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, function(e:Event):void{
if(currentFrame == totalFrames) stop();
})


I have a normal start button, but don't know how or what actionscript to enter to start the animation off.

I sorted it.

Used the script -

play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, myButtonFunction);
function myButtonFunction(event: MouseEvent) {
gotoAndPlay(2);

}

That took me ages to figure out. At least i'll never forget it. )
