Simplest is to put the button in a 2-frame movie clip with stop actions in both

frames. The button action is "play" which toggles the two frames. One frame has

the red "X" the other doesn't. You can have a Stop All Sounds action in one

frame. But you can't have a "start all sounds" action; it doesn't exist. Sound

toggle is a simple, Flash3-compliant scheme and is described step-by-step at
