:thumb2: i was trying to put a movie clip inside a movie clip using a nav test. I received a code that said this…  
[color=black][font=Verdana][/font][/color]  
[color=black][font=Verdana]//set navtest to 1 in first frame of parent movie  
onClipEvent(enterFrame){  
if(this.hitTest(\_root.\_xmouse,\_root.\_ymouse,true)) {  
\_root.navtest = \_root.navtest + 1

trace(\_root.navtest);  
if(\_root.navtest == 2){  
trace(“test”)  
gotoAndPlay(2);  
}

}  
else {  
\_root.navtest = 1  
gotoAndStop(1);  
}  
}

note that \_root.navtest must be set to 1 in the main timeline.[/font][/color]
