Hey I’m using the transition code:

on (release) {  
if (\_root.currMovie == undefined) {  
\_root.currMovie = “about”;  
container.loadMovie(“about.swf”);  
} else if (\_root.currMovie != “about”) {  
if (container.\_currentframe \>= container.midframe) {  
\_root.currMovie = “about”;  
container.play();  
}  
}  
}

And its working great, however, I want to use buttons in MovieClips as well. But for some reason when its click nothing will load, but then it disables the other buttons.

I want to be able to use this button above “about” twice on one page. Only once on the main timeline for easier navigation. And once in a MC for more interactive navigation.

thanks
