I am having a strange little glitch which I can’t seem to makse sense of:

I have a main movie timeline which loads in an external clip of a map on frame 10. When you click on a particular area of the map, this external clip sends the main timeline to another frame which loads another clip (using \_level0.gotoAndPlay(75)😉

…at least this is how it works when testing from Flash. However, as soon as I run the movies in my browser (from Safari or Firefox), it stops working. It will not send the main timeline to another frame. I’ve trid using \_root as well as \_level0, but no luck.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
