I have a bunch of textboxes that they have to click a button to check to see if their entry is correct. I have this code within the buttons

on(release) {  
if(\_root.q5answer == “2”) {  
\_root.correctmovie.gotoAndPlay(2);  
\_root.total = \_root.total + 5;  
}  
}  
on(release) {  
if(\_root.q5answer !== “2”){  
\_root.wrongmovie.gotoAndPlay(2);  
}  
}

it adds 5 every time to the dynamic text box…I have this within the correctmovie (which is checked after each question):

if (\_root.total(Number(100))) {  
tellTarget(“allcorrect”) {  
gotoAndStop(2);  
}  
}

it adds up correctly, but when it gets to 100, it doesn’t play the allcorrect movie…any ideas?

thanks
