Having problems in changin kirupa’s tutorial, complex button ([link](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/button_effect.htm)). Trying to change it from an http button to a gotoAnd Stop (); button. Here’s the segment which deals with that:

> this.onRelease = function(){

gotoAndStop (81);

}

The button’s rollover and rollout animation works fine but the button itself does nothing when clicked. Any help for a newbie to actionscript would be greatly appreciated.
