Question about gotoAndPlay function within a movie clip

I’ve got a seperate SWF movie that is loaded within my main movie

loadMovieNum (“menu.swf”, 9);

And I want to have a ‘back’ button within that seperate SWF that goes back to the start of my movie.

Anyway, when I try creating a button with this code:

on (release) {
_root.gotoAndPlay(6);
}

It doesn’t work.

Can anybody tell me why?

Cheers. :smiley:
