This seems like it should be easy, but I don’t know why I can’t get it working. Basically I’m trying to make it so when you click my “images” button, it plays a movie clip I’ve set on the stage on a different layer. I’ve tried different methods of doing it, like tellTarget and gotoandPlay, which is what I’m currently using. If someone could quickly take a look at my flash file and see if they can figure out what’s wrong with it, I’d be very grateful. I zipped it since it was too large.

Thanks…
