Hi and thanks for taking the time to take a look at this post.

Well…

I’m designing a new layout for my flash site, and a new this I added is fade/enlarge in menus. The problem is that i tried using my novice actionscripting to tell the "box movieclip to goto a certain frame when it zooms in based on which button was pressed on the nav bar. For right now I made a crude solution by eliminating the zooming out, but it ruins the effect’s look so i’m ask for help on it now.

On my buttons i have codes like this:

on (release) {  
\_root.list.gotoAndPlay(“close”);  
(\_global.select == 1);  
}

and on the zoom in frames i have:  
if (\_global.select == 1) {  
\_root.list.box.gotoAndStop(“home”);  
}  
if (\_global.select == 2) {  
\_root.list.box.gotoAndStop(“movies”);  
}

What am I doing wrong?
