Simple button in AS3

Question

hello everybody,
in my website I have a simple button that should trigger at
every click a different frame. Browsing the net I have found the AS
for the simple button (attached code) that works for a sigle click.
Would please tell me the AS to give to the button the
function described above??
thank you so much

Answer 1

My line would replace the gotoAndStop(2) that you had in your
previous code. But I'm not sure that it is what you want. The code
I gave you will tell the thing you clicked on to go to frame 2 and
only to frame two.
I think you are trying to do something different that what I
thought. I think what you want instead of your gotoAndStop() line
you just want
nextFrame();
Of course you might want to do something special when you get
to the last frame so you might want to add something like:
if(currentFrame==totalFrames){
next.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, release);
next.alpha=.5;
That would go just after the nextFrame(). That checks to see
if the current frame is the last one and if so removes the click
handler from the next button and makes it transparent so it looks
disabled. (That could be done in a lot of fancier ways, but this
was just to give you the idea.)
Does that help?
