Hi, can someone tell me if there is something wrong with this? playbtn\_mc is a button with that instance name… The button is on the main timeline not in another mc, I tried \_root.my\_sound.start(); also. The mp3 name is correct and is in the same folder as the fla and swf

playbtn\_mc.onRelease = function(){  
var my\_sound:Sound = new Sound();  
my\_sound.loadSound(“backtoschool.mp3”, true);  
my\_sound.start();  
}

I’ve been to the kennybellew as2 tut but cant seem to get it working with onload?

Thanks
