I’m doing an image slide show right now and I have the script set up like this:

image\_mc.stop();

forward\_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, forward1);  
back\_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, back1);

function forward1(event:MouseEvent):void {  
gotoAndStop(frame + 1);  
}

function back1(event:MouseEvent):void {  
gotoAndStop(frame - 1);  
}

I have the images inside a movieclip and my script is not working right now.  
What do I have to do so that when I press the button it will allow it to change frames?
