[gameprogrammer] Re: Flash question

I'm not sure of the exact steps but create a movie object (which you should be able to set the instance name of) with two frames, one with no box, one without. The first frame is blank and the second has the box. The first frame has action script of stop(). When the button is clicked either set the movie to 1 or 2 depending on the state. A general answer to your question is you have to put the symbol into an object (movie, button etc) to name it, and therefore to do anything with it.

Anyone know flash? I have a text button on a screen that says "What is this?" When the user clicks the button I want to show a little box with some text. When they click again the box should go away.
So far I tried creating a symbol to show and hide it, but I can't seem to give a graphic symbol an instance name to refer to it by.
