Nebody good with If/Then Statements

1

I have a simple If/Then Statement problem. I’m trying to get this button to change it self through an if/then conditional. In addition i’d like the get the button value to remain after the menu is re-minimized (if user clicks button to make it red, then when they re-minimize and then re-maximize it remained red). But i don’t kno where to start there.

i have used the following coding for my button if/then conditional.

 on (release) {
 
 if (this == "11") {
  //Movieclip GotoAndPlay Behavior
  this.gotoAndPlay("2");
 } else if (this == "6") {
  this.gotoAndPlay("7");
 } else {
  this.gotoAndPlay("7");
  //End Behavior
 }
}

P.S. I only did one button to learn the concept. So to neone who knows about if/then or boolean conditionals, and can solve this simple issue, please break it down and explain it to me. I wish to learn this concept.

Thanks before hand. :ne:

Why are you using this on your if statements?

when implementing behaviors to the button the this was used to tell flash which frame within which layer to play. Shouls i have something else in place of it.
