How to Get Flash Movie to Stop at End
Actionscript commands are used to control the animation of a Flash movie. Simple commands include playing the movie, jumping to a frame and playing from that frame on and jumping to a frame and stopping the movie. The stop(); command stops playback of the movie on the frame where the command is located. This command is inserted into the frame using a Flash object called a "keyframe." Use a keyframe on the last frame of the movie to get it to stop.
