ok i have checked around the web and i see this has been an issue for a lot of people. mine is little unique. I have 4 png images that are graphic symbols with motion tweening. they're set to 0 alpha opacity and fade into 100%. I also have a text link. After checking the web i found a few pieces actionscript that helped me get these images to fade in but it made my link disappear and it won't stop looping. this was the code i used

stop();

this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, loading);

function loading(e:Event):void
{
var total:Number = this.stage.loaderInfo.bytesTotal;
var loaded:Number = this.stage.loaderInfo.bytesLoaded;

if (total == loaded)
{
play();
this.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, loading);
}
}

found another one pretty similar but i still ran into the same problem with the text and the looping. can anyone please help
