i’ve been searching on the forums and the solution that works for everyone else doesn’t work for me. I have a movie clip in scene 1 with a button at the end of it that i want to link to scene 2 of the main timeline.

tried \_root and \_parent and it either plays frame one of the MC or nothing at all.

any other ides? here’s the code:

```auto
on (release) {
	_root.gotoAndPlay("web", 1);
}

```
