i’ve learnt the drop down menu from here  
[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/dropdownmenu.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/dropdownmenu.htm)  
however i cant use the buttons to link the frames at scene 1 to the button  
eg i give “goto n stop at frame 50” for the button  
but i end up at the frame 50 in the \*menu

so how do i link frames in the scene 1 to the buttons in the \*menu

- a button name in the tutorial zip

if you want it to go frame 50 on the main timeline (not inside any kind of movieclip) then try \_root.gotoAndStop();  
\_root referrs to the main timeline!
