Re: FLASH: Will this loop work?

[Paul Kaiser]

Hi Mike,


I think you will continue to have problems with your loop. I'm not sure why

it is quitting without giving you an error message of "too many actions" in

your loop, but here's what you should do:


Have two keyframes in your timeline right in a row. In the first key frame,

do the checking:


First frame: (let's call it "checker" here)


>      If (confirm   eq   no)

>            Comment: Failure

>            Set Variable: "confirm" = ""

>            Go to and Stop ("retry")

>      End If

>      If (confirm  eq  yes)

>            Comment: Success

>            Go to and Stop ("ok")

>      End If


Then in the next frame, simply put a "Goto and Play" to the "checker" frame.


This will create a loop that can execute endless times without error. If

you get a yes or a no, you will skip right on by the second frame, other

wise you go right back to the "checker" frame.


Is this code in the main timeline? How about the variable "confirm" --

where it it at? Have you done a variable check while running to see what

confirm actually reads?


Good luck,

Paul Kaiser
