I have a button on the stage that controls a movie clip on the stage, named “clicker” and “btnController”, respectively.

Here’s the code.

```auto

clicker.onRelease = function() {
		_root.btnController.gotoAndPlay(1);
}

```

What exactly am I doing wrong? It just loops over and over with no mousing functionality. Pretty new to AS3.0 and trying to ramp up to speed quickly, so if this question is mildly retarded, I apologize. Hope someone can help.
