Drop down menu problem

I’m fairly new to action scrip and on top of that I’m dyslexic so bear with me. I’m using Flash 8 professional to develop a new portfolio website. It has multiple scenes and so I’m trying to make a universal menu that can be placed on all pages as an object. So far I’ve got a pull down menu containing some copies of a master button but the script I put on them doesn’t seem to work.
I’m using:

on (release){
gotoAndStop(“test”);
}

Where test is the name of the scene I want it to go to. Please help.
