Flash MX vs Flash MX 2004

[flashpest]

What's the scoop on the player? I'm a smidge in the dark on 2004mx. Will users need to get a new player and are we going to have to go through another year of wondering if everyone can see and use all the stuff? I love the progression of the program but the only thing that gets tiring is the player issue.

Couldn't you do something like...

OnClipEvent(enterFrame){
var frameNumber = getCurrentFrame;
gotoAndPlay(frameNumber-1); //or maybe -2
}

That syntax could be all wrong (first thing in the morning here), but hopefully you get the idea. Make it into a function, there you go, one command.

Probably have to tell the movie to stop going backwards when it gets to frame 1 of course.

Or even easier....

onClipEvent(enterFrame){
    _root.movie1.prevFrame();
}
