FLASH: action: should be easy but...

[Willem van den Goorbergh]

Hello list,

What is wrong with the following action:


Set Variable: "repeat" = 1

Loop While (repeat <= 3)

      Set Variable: "repeat" = repeat + 1

End Loop

Begin Tell Target ("../")

      Go to Next Frame

      Play

End Tell Target


The action is in the first frame of a movieclip that sits in the

second frame of the main timeline.

In the first frame of the main timeline there is a button that tells

the main timeline to go to the second frame (where the movieclip

sits) and stop

The movieclip *should* repeat 3 times and then trigger playing the

main timeline from frame 3.

The main timeline is played immediately though, without the clip

being played.

(The clip plays nicely without any actions)
