How do you make a movie clip invisible in CS3?

[Ithiriel]

Hi,

I know this sounds stupid, but I've worked like all the time with Flash 2004 and Flash MX. Now I got CS3, and I want to do the following. I made a MP3 player, but I want to make a 'play' icon visible when the music plays and the 'pause' icon visible when it's paused. Therefor the 'play' icon needs to be invisible, and vice versa. I've got this, but it gives an error:

import flash.events.MouseEvent;
pause_text._visible = false;
play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, showPlay);

function showPlay(event:MouseEvent):void
{
play_text._visible = true;
pause_text._visible = false;
}

pause_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, showPause);

function showPause(event:MouseEvent):void
{
pause_text._visible = true;
play_text._visible = false;
}

What am I doing wrong? In MX or 2004, this was the way to make Movie Clips invisible. Please help.

Thanks in advance,

Regards,
Ithiriel

Cases that use to be _property in AS2 are now just property in AS3. So _x is x, _y is y, and _visible is visible. This should work:

function showPlay(event:MouseEvent):void
{
play_text.visible = true;
pause_text.visible = false;
}

It's working, thank you.
