Why does the if,else part of this statement not work? Is it because of the way I wrote the if condition?? This should be so simple not sure why I can’t make it work…

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {  
\_y += (yMove-\_y)/easeSpeed;  
if (\_xmouse\>=110 & \_xmouse\<=370 & \_ymouse\>=465 & \_ymouse\<=640) {  
gotoAndPlay(“intro”);  
} else {  
gotoAndPlay(“mid”);  
};  
}
