SWFLoader

Question

Hi EveryOne,
I'll be repeating a question which has been asked many a time in this community. I have also gone through earlier posts created.....with same topic but was not able to resolve the issue i had.
I want to know how to Pause and Stop a SWF file running on a SWFLoader component ????????
Another one......do we have Time line in Flex too......??? and how can we implement....Seeking the SWF Clip in SWFloader??? can we do it without using MovieClip class?????
Following is the code i'm trying however not working.................
        public function stop():void
        if (loader.content is MovieClip)
    var clip:MovieClip = loader.content as MovieClip;
       clip.stop();
Thaks all.

Hi,
It will be better for you if you will use Loader instead of the SwfLoader.I am giving you the solution with the Loader.I have never been tried with the swfLoader. Pls find the code here of your problem's solution.Let me know if you have any issue with this.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
layout="absolute" creationComplete="OnCreationComplete()">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.core.UIComponent;
private var loader:Loader;
private function OnCreationComplete():void
var url : String ="assets/animation.swf";
loader = new Loader();
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
loader.load(request);
loaderHolder.rawChildren.addChild(loader as DisplayObject);
private function onStop():void
var mc : MovieClip = loader.content as MovieClip;
mc.stop();
private function onPlay():void
var mc : MovieClip = loader.content as MovieClip;
mc.play();

</mx:Script>
<mx:VBox width="100%" height="100%" horizontalAlign="center" verticalAlign="middle">
<mx:Canvas id="loaderHolder" width="500" height="500"/>
