Loren, The stop() command is commented out on frame 5 (Start). That would explain why the movie blows by that frame. If I am reading it correctly, this is what is happening: When the movie gets to frame 5, it loads start.swf and keeps playing until it gets to frame 15, where it loads

If you don't need to use the flash outside the IDE you could use the jsfl FLfile.listFolder() function. e.g. function init(srcURI){ alert(FLfile.listFolder(srcURI, directories)); return(FLfile.listFolder(srcURI, directories)); }

Usually, when someone asks how do I delete a class? I assume they mean how do I remove an instance of a class from memory?, rather than How do I delete a class so new instances of it can not be made. I'm pretty sure you can delete the constructor of a class just by saying delete

You may want to wait for AS3. At www.kaourantin.net/2005/10/png-encoder-in-as3.html, you will find a PNG encoder that one of the Flash Player programmers wrote. He's also got a JPG encoder. Both are written in AS3, because the performance would be too slow in AS2. At
