Hi my fellow flashers.

Can´t seem to figure this one out.  
Got a mc in the main timeline. The mc contains another mc with a tween that ends with  
[AS]\_parent.gotoAndStop(nextFrame);[/AS]  
this just to skip to the next frame in the first mc but the code does not work?!

Is there problems with using nextFrame inside mc or have I just missed something?
