Hi,

I got a problem regarding the path.  
I’ve followed the script as suggested in Kirupa tutorials while designing a flash form.  
My form movie clip is at:\_root.form  
But when I am using  
onclip(data)  
\_root.form.nextframe();  
its not going into the next frame where the mail reciept text is, but the form functionility is working fine.

Hey!!..I got the same problem here.  
I wish we could all find an aswer to this. Seeking all over the forum I couldn´t find a solution to this kind of “send button” thing…Can´t the author of the tutorial give us a hand???

What fails is the second procedure.

1).- Send mail - (variables are sent, mail is recieved ok)  
2).- Send button works great at \_root but fails inside a movieclip. The data is constantly “tranfering” and no “next frame” event is called.

Thanks in advance! 😉
