FLASH: loop script

[Brack, Jeremy]

Here is what I have so far, and it doesnt see to be working yet:


Set Variable: x = "5"

Loop While (x>0)

      Set Variable: "x" = "x-1"

      Go to and Play (2)

End Loop

Go to and Stop (9)


on frame 20 I have a "goto 1 and Play"



----------------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------

I am starting to work with action scripts and I need to loop through a

couple of frames so that they play  back 5 times, then proceed to the next

set of frames on the timeline..

I know that I need to declare a variable, and set it to 5, and subtract 1

from the variable every loop..

and set a "while" condition to check the value of the variable each loop.


I guess all I need is the Flash translation of a standard loop-while code.

So if anyone can just tell me the code, or give a link to an online

tutorial, it would be very helpful!


thanks


Jeremy
