Flash HELP -- mute button?

[mikedegroot]

This has to be so easy it's pathetic. How in the WORLD do you create a mute button in flash?

'StopAllSounds' command doesn't work -- it only stops playing what is playing NOW... not what could play later.

What I do is create a movie, place a button on it for the mute, and then create enough frames for the music to play in. I then create two keyframes, one for the end of the music, where I put in the command to loop, and one more keyframe right after that. What I do is then have the button direct it to go directly to that last keyframe, where the stop command is located. Then to restart the music I change the command in the button for the last keyframe, and tell it to go back to the first frame.
