Can FLASH run at a certain time?

[charlesjsc]

Hi,
I was wondering if I could make my .swf file run at certain times of the day, such as 8am, 11am etc...
Can I set this in Flash?

That's Great, BUT, will the FLASH box disappear after it plays?

Are you talking an online or local playing .swf?

Online (live)

Do you want it to disappear?

Since it would only run at certain hours, it means some users may never see it, if not browsing your site at those particular hours?

YES, I want the Flash Box to disappear when the video is done. They are only like 2-3 minutes long.

You can unload the movie... But that will leave a blank space in your page, and would probably never show up again at another scheduled hour to play...

Or maybe make it invisible...

_level0._visible = false;

And make it visible again at the next playing hour.
