ok.  
this never happened to me, since this is very simple but somehow, it doesn’t feel like working. in the attachment, when the button is clicked, it should play the movie from frame 2 but somehow, it doesn’t. Since i’ve been working with flash, i did it the following way:

on (release) {  
gotoAndPlay(2);  
}

which worked fine, but now it doesn’t. can anyone look at it please and tell me what’s wrong there???  
thanx

I got rid of layer1 in the button and it works fine. That little transition when you mouse over stops the button from recognising the actionscript. To have mouseover effects on buttons you need to put the effect in the over keyframe of the button…
