I created 3 movieclips each are loaded externally.

videoHolder1.loadMovie(movie1.swf);
videoHolder2.loadMovie(movie2.swf);
videoHolder3.loadMovie(movie3.swf);

I have a play and a stop button. So when user clicks on the stop button all 3 movie will pause and play will resume the movie.

playBtn.onRelease = function(){
videoHolder1.play();
videoHolder2.play();
videoHolder3.play();
}

stopBtn.onRelease = function(){
videoHolder1.stop();
videoHolder2.stop();
videoHolder3.stop();
}

What happens is, the play and stop button works fine when running on the Flash Player. However, when I used IE to open the swf file, the movie and everything appears and working, just that the play and stop button won't work in IE or other browsers. Any idea why is this so?

Hi, thanks for the reply. The problem is I run the swf file on a server. Meaning other computer connect to the server to run the swf file.

But the movie.swf are all run locally. So if all pcs cannot play and stop properly, can't be the flash player problem right?

And if I just run the swf file but not in the browser, it can play and stop with no problems.
