Hey there,  
I have attached my FLA, and I am stumped. I KNOW this should be super simple.  
I have a very simple, common setup. main window with some navigation buttons.  
I have a layer for actionscript, and a layer for labels.  
currently, I have only tried to get the “home” and “contact” buttons working.  
I can get a little bit of functionality if I put the AS on the button. Yes, I know this is not best practice, but it was working. Sort of.  
When I click my “home” button from the initial window, I get the home window reloading, as I would like. When I click the contact button, it loads an external SWF, contact.swf. great.  
But when I am in the “contact” mode, and I hit the “home” button, I get nothing.

Now, if I move the AS to the actions layer (changing the on(release) to onRelease, etc…), I get NO functionality at all. I have no clue what I am doing wrong. There aren’t miles of code to go through here. just this basic navigation.

Thanks…

ok, attaching the fla is no-go, too big. (2.9 MB). So you can find it here:
