text: in flash mx i want to control a movie clip or timeline (not video but flash movie) to fast forward and rewind. i have a movie clip created in flash thats on either the timeline or movieclip on the main timeline. i know how to make the movie start and stop. but i want a person to be able to hold down (or release)the button and rewind and fast forward the movieclip . is this possible. thanks.  jin if you want the action to occur over and over while the button is pressed, you will want to set an onpress event handler that either sets an onenterframe or a setinterval that does the appropriate action.  you will also need an onrelease and onreleaseoutside to remove the onenterframe or clearinterval.  to fastforward through the timeline, i would suggest using something like: gotoandstop(_currentframe+1)  you can change the value to affect the speed it fastforwards throught the timeline or use a negative number to rewind.
