Help?
I'm no actionscripter ... come to think of it, I'm not even exactly sure if I know how describe my dilemma but here goes:
1. I've made a UI shell for my company's eLearning program.
2. External SWFs are loaded into the shell with _root.mtClip.loadMovie("theTrainingMovie.s
3. On the UI shell there are "Previous" and a "Next" buttons.
4. The external SWFs have frame labels at various intervals, standardized to: Slide_1, Slide_2, Slide_3, Slide_4 on up to, saaaay, Slide_30.
5. I need to be able to have the "Previous" and "Next" buttons skip to the next and/or previous "Slide" in the loaded SWF ... I don't ever want to have to change the code associated with the Previous/Next buttons and I'd like to not have to add extra code to the loaded SWFs
Hmm?
I have an idea of what to do (using a variable) but it seemed sloppy and when I tried it and it didn't work. I'm sure I need to set a variable and check which frame is loaded but I'm lost in the actual implementation.
Thanks.
