I have a problem on my site, I have it navigated with the different frames. In one portion I have a scrolling bar, what I need is to link to different parts of the site from within this scrollbar. BTW I have buttons inside the movie scroller bar window, these are what I need to change to different frames of the movie.

Is this possible to do? Ive tried so many things I lost count.

\_root.labelname should work, supposing you place some labels in your main timeline

thanks very much! Ive been looking for a solution to fix this for days.

If anyone else needs it the command I used was

\_root.gotoAndStop(“nameofframe”);
