Ahhh, thank you... I created my own buttons with a simple triangle and a square. The square covered up the triangle even though it was in the lower layer. I fixed it by creating going into the play button and i put a rectangle behind it. The play button shows first now.

Thanks again

Why doesn't the swf work when I put it on the web page? It is giving me this error:

"ArgumentError: Error #2068: Invalid sound.
at flash.media::Sound/play()
at 1_fla::MainTimeline/startPlay()"

The swf plays fine on it's own.

Hi Anna,
The sound starts to play before it’s complete loaded. This tutorial is a basic example. You can see this behavior at the most audio players online, they use a progress bar to keep track of the percent of the sound loaded. You will see that the sounds starts to play as soon as sufficient data is loaded and the progress bar continues to grow until the sound it’s completed loaded.
