Load external swf and stop at 1st frame.

Question

Hello EveryoneI am using following code to display an external swf file on iPad.var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://<server ip>/test.swf");loader = new Loader();loader.load(request);The file loads and goes through every frame and closes the app.Is there a way to stop at 1st frame after the file is loaded and move between frames at will?Thanks

If you listen for when the loader is complete you can stop the swf:

var mc:MovieClip;

loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,swfloaded);

function swfloaded(e:Event){

mc = e.target.content as MovieClip;

mc.stop();

}

Now you can do what you like to that movie clip. Like:

mc.gotoAndStop("some label");

or:

mc.gotoAndStop(10);
