Some Flash related challenges

[Cat22]

Hi,

Was wondering if any of you nice people would be able to tell me how to crossfade images in a slide show where the user is required to click a button between slides?
I have been doing some research, and found some lovely script for making a slideshow that crossfades to the next image after a certain amount of time, but I need the user to be able to view each slide as long as they like (hence the buttons). Is this possible?
Presumably I need to attatch some script to the buttons, but I can't figure out what, as I'm a bit of a beginner with all this.

Cheers,

Cat.

I am not sure what you mean by crossfade? Please show me a URL to a file that accomplishes the task you want. I am sure I could help you after I know what you want to accomplish.

Hi,

thanks for replying...
It's taken me a while to track down a website that uses the sort of thing I'm after, but www.headmagazine.co.uk uses the sort of slide show I was trying to make to display their online mag.

Cheers,
Cat.

Are you talking about the image slide show after you click the head link?

Hi,
yeah, the magazine pages bit, where the images fade out to black before the next one fades in.

So easy, if only I had flash on this computer, I will post a sample file to this thread when I get home.
