Play gesture with attachment?

I'm trying to get a gesture to play when I attach something to my avatar. At the moment I can get the animation to do it but haven't been able to get the sound to play as well. Also, a HUGE bonus would be to get the attachment to detach after the gesture is done playing.
Help please? Anyone who could solve this problem will get a copy of the avatar I'm making.

Thank you!

Perhaps the following script will work.

1) place this script in the root prim of the attachment
2) place the animation in the root prim of the attachment
3) set the value of ANIMATION_NAME
4) place the sound in the root prim of the attachment
5) set the value of SOUND_NAME
6) set the value of SOUND_VOLUME
7) set the value of GESTURE_DURATION

When the object is attached, it should simultaneously start playing the animation and the sound. After the gesture duration expires, it should detach itself.

HTH,

HP

string ANIMATION_NAME   = "ENTER ANIMATION NAME HERE";
string SOUND_NAME       = "ENTER SOUND NAME HERE";
float  SOUND_VOLUME     = 1; //min = 0.0; max = 1.0
float  GESTURE_DURATION = 5; //seconds

default
{
    on_rez(integer start_param)
    {
        llRequestPermissions(llGetOwner(), PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION);
        llSetTimerEvent(GESTURE_DURATION);
    }

    timer()
    {
        llSetTimerEvent(0);
        llRequestPermissions(llGetOwner(), PERMISSION_ATTACH);
    }

     run_time_permissions(integer perm)
     {
        if (perm & PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION)
        {
            llStartAnimation(ANIMATION_NAME);
            llPlaySound(SOUND_NAME, SOUND_VOLUME);
        }
        else if (perm & PERMISSION_ATTACH)
        {
            llDetachFromAvatar();
        }
    }
}

As might be deduced from the other post, you can mimic gestures with a script, but you cannot play a gesture from a script. There is no function like llStartGesture, which is a shame.

Hugsy YOU ROCK!

Worked PERFECTLY! Give me a bit of time to make a few adjustments and I will send the avie to you!
