i used this tutorial:  
[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/transitions.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/transitions.htm)  
(\*\* [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=4][COLOR=#003366]Transitions [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT] \*\*[FONT=Verdana][SIZE=4][COLOR=#003366]Between External SWFs)

[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]i have a simple problem…this tutorial tells u to use Button symbols for the navigation

well i wanted to use MovieClip Symbols as my buttons but when i paste the actionscript on the movieclip…nothing happens

this will only work on a Button symbol and not a MovieClip symbol

```auto
on (release){
    if (_root.currMovie == undefined) {
        _root.currMovie = "3";
        container.loadMovie("3.swf");
    } else if (_root.currMovie != "3") {
        if (container._currentframe>= container.midframe) {
            _root.currMovie = "3";
            container.play();
        }
    }
}

```

what do i need to do to modify the actionscript to get it to work???

-thnx
