HI Loren, You can do it the cheap and nasty way, which I like to employ as often as possible :) Simpy put a stop(); frame on the frame on the main timeline where the swf is loaded, and at the end of your loaded swf put the action _parent.play(); This means that the main timeline is stopped,

In a recent project, I used the Macromedia implementation of XPath instead of the Xfactor XPath. If I could jump in with a side question, I thought I had heard something about that - can that be published down to the Flash 7 player? I would assume so if it's just As 2.0 classes, but just thought
