Play flash films... backwards!

I have been looking for a script for a few days that will play your flash films backwards. This means literally making the playhead go backwards in the swf, or quicktime, whatever you export as. I had a project where I needed this and it had to be a very low file size, thus adding new animation wasnt an option. I figured since most of us here use flash, one of you all might find it handy, so here's the code. If you want the fla, email me.

So.. here's what you do: the below script is applied to your first frame or to a button in this case. You would change the (rollout) action to whatever action you wanted.ie: rollover,onclick,etc.
the "movie" word is the name of your movie clip to be played backwards, so if you wanted to name it something else, you'd need to make sure that your clip was named the same in the properties menu.

on (rollOut) {
movie.reverse = false;
movie.play();
}
on (rollOver) {
tint.reverse = true;
}
on (rollover) {
_parent.play();

Now for the 2nd part...
All you do now is atatch this to the aforementioned movie clip. then the code knows which movie clip to perform the function to.You can adjust how many frames forward and backwards the movie will play by typing it within the () brackets after "play".

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (reverse) {
this.prevFrame();
}
}
on (press) {
play();
}


Now Mr Mr can play correcto,incorrecto backwards. yay!
