Hi,

I trying to play different movies based on the day detected by script.  
Script works fine and plays right movie. But as soon as i insert any graphics / animation from library; script stops working.

Is there any known bug with might be causing this or am i missing something ?

thanks  
M

```auto
var todaydate = new Date ();
var dayname = todaydate.getDay();
if (dayname == 4){
 gotoAndPlay ("Thursday");
}
if (dayname == 5){
 gotoAndPlay ("Friday");
}
if (dayname == 6){
 gotoAndPlay ("Saturday");
}
if (dayname == 1){
 gotoAndPlay ("Monday");
}
if (dayname == 2){
 gotoAndPlay ("Tuesday");
}
if (dayname == 3){
 gotoAndPlay ("Wednesday");
}

```
