Thanks Mark! What if a shockwave movie(Movie1) calls a projector movie(projectorMovie) instead. Exiting projectorMovie sometimes causes the application to crash. Exiting just returns to Movie1. I have it saved as a projector bec. I was having sound problems with avi files. -- Alvin Date: Wed, 06 Sep 2000 23:38:13 -0700 From: "Mark A.

Even without the 'go to movie' command you would probably experience problems. Leave the forgetting completely up to the stage. In most circumstances I recommend having the MIAW set a global variable that a script in the stage can monitor. When that global is true, the stage forgets the window. In this case, though, it might be enough just to forget the MIAW in the stopMovie handler of "Movie1" So, on someEventOrHandler tell the stage to go to movie "MainMovie" end - -- movie script in "Movie1" on stopMovie forget window "Movie1Miaw" end - -- Mark A.
