…which has probably been asked before, but here goes anyway:
I’m working on a flash presentation, which comprises basically of a load of identical scenes, except for a variable which defines different content to be loaded into each one. anyway that’s not the important bit because it seems to work fine. but! another element of the movie is creating a probably pretty simple unforeseen problem. the user navigates between scenes by clicking on a navigation area on the left hand side of the movie. this comprises basically of a series of buttons contained in a movie clip. each button is supposed to call a relevant individual scene, and the actionscript is pretty basic…
on (release) {
_root.gotoAndStop(“scenename”, 1);
}
but for some reason, it doesn’t work!!! is there some kind of issue with regard to calling a new scene using a button that’s contained inside a movie? by the way, the scene name is unique, and the movie that contains the buttons has an instance name… I’m baffled. somebody help!
thanks for reading. dar
