My flash movie/test is running funny while it's still loading and I could
use any advice or direction that you experts might offer me. To put it
bluntly... I'm dying over here, hehe. I'd just blow on past this problem
for now but I'm at a point that I really need to get this settled before I
go on.

Here is the situation....

Click to the URL and the movie starts
2 picture buttons come up
the movie continues to load
If at THIS point you click the left button it doesn't go to the right spot
in the movie. In fact... instead of heading to frame 36 where it's supposed
to go it proceeds to the next frame (I think 15) and begins running.

My theory... While Flash preloads the movie it's easily confused. When the
link says head on over to frame 36 it doesn't know how to get to frame 36
yet because it hasn't loaded that far yet. Soooooo what it does is load the
farthest frame it's gotten to in the preloading process. (in this case like
15 or 16 or so)

If this is true, is there any way around this rather DEVESTATING problem?
Do I need to cut this baby up into scenes? I've read John Croteau bag on
those many times BUT... if it's the only way, then... Anyway, maybe it's
just something I can fix in Aftershock... or a setting in Flash. I don't
know and any advice or marching orders would be GREATLY appreciated. The
URL is where this mess is located is www.websitepartners.com/rapfoto

about to eat 2 pizza hot pockets,

p.s.
Thanks for the help on the cut and paste Byron. If this baby needs to be
hacked into several different scenes I'm ready, hehe.
