ok hi out there,
here’s my problem:
I’m doing a flash movie for school.
I made a few scenes to make it more structured because it had gone a little bit big 
now I’m trying to get from a menu button in scene 3 (first frame) to the next frame of scene 3 (would be frame 2, but later I want to go to other frames as well)
it sounds quite easy indeed and it worked of course when I used a button directliy in the main time line of scene 3 using the actionscript code:
// quite easy one 
on (release) {
gotoAndStop(2);
}
now i tried it from the menu.
the path to the menu button would be:
_root.menu.slider (frame 9).buttons1.menubutton (in Scene 3)
(I know that this is not actionscript conform it’s just to make clear that the path is a little bit long)
my actionscript code for this button is:
on (release) {
gotoAndStop(2);
}
it does nothing
i also tried:
on (release) {
gotoAndStop(“Scene 3”, 2);
}
and:
on (release) {
tellTarget(_root){
gotoAndStop(2); //also with gotoAndStop(“Scene 3”,2);
} //and: gotoAndStop(Scene 3, 2);
}
and:
on (release) {
tellTarget(_parent){
gotoAndStop(2); //also with gotoAndStop(“Scene 3”,2);
} //and: gotoAndStop(Scene 3, 2);
}
my last posibility was:
if you don’t work I’ll deinstall you!
come on!
stupid program
:hangover: :hangover: :hangover: :hangover: :hangover: :hangover: :hangover:
I’m sure that this might be a very easy problem but I spent more than 4 hours now and I can’t solve this one.
(if it would help you to help me send me an e-mail and I’ll send you the file. excuse my english I’m from germany ;))
