[Flash CS4 AS 2.0] Drop down menu! Help needed

Hey this is my first time here and would appreciate some help. My problem is that inside my main or root timeline i have this movieclip that on rollover and rollout expands. Sort of a drop down menu i guess. Well inside this movieclip i have buttons that navigate through the main timeline’s frames…except that the buttons don’t seem to function correctly. The button’s rollovers don’t work and doesn’t activate frame jumping. I am making an entire flash website using minimal code and try and stick to code that i can write and not copy code…so if you could try and make the code small would be great help. I am using Flash CS4 and ActionScript 2 by the way. Will post the fla on request. Here is the different commands i have tried. Thanks.


on (release){tellTarget (_root) {
gotoAndStop("Scene 1", 58);
} 
}


on (release) {
    _root.gotoAndStop(58);
}
