I have preloaded 5 swf into my main movie… I have figured out how to call the movies using  
on (release) {  
\_level1.gotoAndPlay(“framelable”);  
}

i want to be able to navigate from level2 to level1 but it does not work…  
I have a button in the swf that is loaded into in level 2 and use the same code  
on (release) {  
\_level1.gotoAndPlay(“rocky”);  
}

but nothing happens

please help  
thanks!

You have to use:

[COLOR=blue]on (release) {  
\_level(number).(instance).gotoAndPlay(“framelabel”);  
}  
[/COLOR]

I’ll post a fla to look at. It’s very easy.

Here a new fla - the other one had gotoAndPlay when it should have been gotoAndStop.
