I have the following code in my application.

```auto
if (posbuttlistener.click){var txt_url="pos.txt"}else { if (invbuttlistener.click)var txt_url="inv.txt"}

```

I am filling in a text display component dynamically based on buttons that are clicked,so that appropriate txt\_url variable is given the selection. But when I play the movie I see that only the first if is working, the else part never works…can anyone help ?TIA!
