Hi there,

I am trying to play a simple movie clip when the playhead gets to a frame label called “home”. The moveclip is called “playRollClick”. I am trying to write this in as3.

The code below is what I’ve come up with so far, but it doesn’t seem to work.

thanks in advance

addEventListener(Event.ENTER\_FRAME,playRollClick);

function playRollClick(event:Event) {

rollClick\_mc.play();

}
