Stop random button animations playing

Change it to start on click and stop on click on a different button.

Or, create a movieClip with a button1 on frame one and a different button2
on frame 2.
When the user clicks button1, gotoAndStop frame 2.
When a user clicks button2, gotoAndStop frame 1.

On frame 1 put the code:
myAnimation.play(); //the instance name of your animation

On frame 2 put the code;
myAnimation.stop();
