i assume it's a series of frames with slightly different photos of the razor. when you play the movie it looks like it is spinning . . .

my question is, how do they get the movie clip it to play forward when you move the mouse in one direction, and backward in the other?

is it something like mouse over to the right and left (i'm bad with the direction code)??

any suggestions and help would be cool!

right now i have a version that will play the movie clip (it's a button w/ only a hotspot) on mouse over and it will stop when the mouse os off the hotspot, but i can't get it to work like the headblade example . . . because i don't know the right code to play forward and back etc on mouse moves . . .

thanks!

Heres a file which works in a similar way-I`,m afraid the syntax is a little dated.

wow! cool . . . i'll have some fun figuring out how it works . . .

question: how would do the same thing but on a mouse over and move (so basically the same but without pressing a mouse button)?
