Play/Pause Toggle button...

[flashgrl]

Hi,

I'm trying to make a play/pause toggle button...

I created a play button and a pause button and have them sitting on different layers. Here's the code I was trying to use:

playBtn.onRelease = function() {
ns.pause(false);
playBtn._visible = false;
pauseBtn._visible = true;
};

pauseBtn.onRelease = function() {
ns.pause(true);
playBtn._visible = true;
pauseBtn._visible = false;
};

But I'm getting this error: "access of undefined property ns"

What gives?

Thanks in advance for any advice!

Have you created a NetStream object with the instance name "ns"?  Have you set your Publish Settings for Actionscript 2?  id you realize you posted in the wrong forum for the version of actionscript you are using?

hmmm... i was afraid it was as2. GRRRR

I need an as3 eqiv, I guess.

Dumped that code and switched to this:

pauseBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, stopMovie);

function stopMovie (Event)
{
    stop();
}

playBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playMovie);

function playMovie (Event)
{
    play();
}

Now I just need to add show/hide...

got it...

playBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playMovie);

function playMovie (Event)
{
play();
playBtn.visible =false;
pauseBtn.visible =true;
}

pauseBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, stopMovie);

function stopMovie (Event)
{
stop();
pauseBtn.visible =false;
playBtn.visible =true;

}

Hopefully this thread will help some other as3 newbie-dufus, (like myself!!!)
