Hi folks!

Well, I have a problem with AS, maybe someone can help me out!

Currently I have a site wich loads 2 movies: a MENU (\_level10) and a PAGE(\_level2). Somewhere deeper into the hieriarchy of the MENU there’s a button that needs to make a clip on the PAGE gotoAndPlay, to the label “next”.

The issue is, that I can’t seem to adress this clip… I’m using this code:

on (release){  
\_level2.\_root.animation.gotoAndPlay(“next”);}

I even tried it with/without “\_root”, with a tellTarget, and other ways. There are no syntax errors (if the code above is wrong that’s due to RSI, lazyness and bad spelling). I hope anyone can help me to adress this clip the right way.

try:  
\_level2.animation.gotoAndPlay(“next”);

//\_root is the same as \_level0

goodluck!
