hello,  
how do i do the actionscript to get .swf or .png to load in the ‘about’ section of this menu.  
the ‘portfolio’ section works fine with this actionscript  
box1.onRelease = function(){  
\_parent.\_parent.gotoAndStop(“portfolio”);  
loadMovie(“animFolder/jump.swf”, \_parent.\_parent.targetArea);  
}  
box1.onRollOver = function(){  
box1.gotoAndPlay(2);  
}  
box1.onRollOut = function(){  
box1.gotoAndStop(1);  
}  
but if i put  
\_parent.\_parent.gotoAndStop(“about”);  
loadMovie(“animFolder/stand.swf”, \_parent.\_parent.targetArea);  
in the actionscript for the ‘about’ section it dosnt work. any ideas on what im doing wrong?

thanks
