Making buttons play music?

Question

I want to make on button play a piece of music and another one to stop the music. I manage to make buttons work for playing frames in the timeline, but how do I make the buttons play the music and stop it? I tried this http://www.flash-here.com/tutorials/flash_play_sound.html but I guess this is not action script 3.0 which I am using because it does not work...

Answer 1

Thanks for the tutorial, but I think it is too advanced for my needs. My knowledge inte action script are still on a very low level so I am trying to learn by doing. This is what I have managed to do so far.
stop();
var snd:Sound = new popeye();
radio_on_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, play_radio_fkn);
function play_radio_fkn (event:MouseEvent):void {
snd.play();
radio_off_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, stop_radio_fkn);
function stop_radio_fkn (event:MouseEvent):void {
snd.close();
But using close() does not work, the error message says there is no stream to close. The on-button works though. I am guessing I need a soundChannel-something. But I have a problem with the syntax and I don't know how to fit it in...
