Menu problem

Ok, so I’m new at all this and I’m sorry if I say something that makes no senses or used the wrong terms. So my problem is that I have a drop down menu and I want to be able to click on button that pops out and bring me to a different frame in my scene. This menu is in a movie clip so when I click it, it won’t go to the frame I want. What do I have to do? Or is this totally wrong or are you just confused?

I just have the regular code on my button that pops out when you scroll over menu.

on (release) {
gotoAndPlay();
}
