I have card with a list (fld TheList) of items. This button script
initalizes some values:
on mouseUp
global x
put empty into x
CloseMovie
end mouseUp
and this handler does the work:
on closeMovie
global x
add 1 to x
if line x of fld TheList is empty then exit closeMovie
else
put line x of fld TheList into TheMovie
open movie TheMovie
set the topLeft of window TheMovie to "236,78"
send "play" to window TheMovie
set the CloseOnFinish of window TheMovie to true
end if
end closeMovie
You can set also the location of the Quicktime window to better integrate
into your design. You can also set the window style, the visibility and
layer. Don't know how much you know, or need to fiddle with. :-)
