I have a movie clip called al\_mc in there i have a drag & drop and it works

```auto
 
on (release) {
 stopDrag();
 _root.stopThis(13);
}

```

then on the main timeline i have this function, and it keeps telling me that it is wrong. Any idea what i can do to fix the problem?

```auto

function stopThis (aNum) {
  trace (elementNum[aNum])
 if (_droptarget == "/"+elementNum[aNum]+"_mc") {
  fadeOut(22);
 } else {
  reponse = "Sorry, try again"
 }
}

```
