I made a movie in flash and I want it to stop at the end and play again when you press the "play again" button, but it just keeps looping. How do I do this?

I can tell you're new to Flash, welcome, man! Its pretty simple.

1. Click on the last frame of your movie, and bring up the "actions" panel (ctrl + 'f', I think)
2. Type in the following script without quotes:

stop ();

3. Click on your "play again" button and enter the following ActionScript:

 

on (release) {
	gotoAndPlay (1);
}

That's about it! Message me if you need more help

Thank you !

Stopping the movie works, but where precisely do I put in the code for the button?

[Jay.]

click on your button and open actions pane (F9) at the bottom of the actions pane should be a little image of your button that's how you know you are typing the script in the button then just type the code:

on(release){
gotoAndPlay(1);
}

"(1)" is the frame you want that button to play, if you have let's say your movie in the 50th frame and you want to play the 27th frame then it's:
on(release){
gotoAndPlay(27);
}

hope it helps.
peace!
