3D animation plays in reverse ?

Question

I am trying to prepare a simple video of a book opening. You can see the file here:

If I scrub the timeline, the book opens as you would expect. However, when I test publish it, ir plays in reverse. Does anyone know why ? Incidentally, I put a stop action at the end to stop it looping. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You can/should keep all your actionscript in one place whenever possible, and in your case I see no reason why you cannot have it all in the same frame/layer.
If you use the "cover" in that code, it is still trying to turn the cover.  You can probably reuse that same function for all page turnings as well.  Just change that function to be a little more generic and define the page that is to be turned....
      var page:MovieClip;  
      function turnPage(evt:Event):void {
            page.rotationY += 2;   // adjust value for speed or change frame rate
            if(page.rotationY == 180) stage.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, turnPage);
Then you can have a new function that you call that assigns page to be the new object and sets up the ...
      function startTurning(pg:MovieClip): void {
            page = pg;
            stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, turnPage);   // this starts the turning
And when you want to turn a page you call that function with the object's name as an argument.
      startTurning(cover);
      start turning(leaf1);
      startTurning(leaf2);
