I used this code in a button:

on (release) {  
gotoAndPlay(“primero”);  
\_root.navegador.gotoAndPlay(“start”);  
}

the button when released has to play the label “primero”  
and then go to the root, find a clip called “navegador” and play the label start.

flash tells me the script has no errors, but he button does not work.

any ideas???

i’m not 100% sure, but try parent instead of root.
