Hi,

I’ve created a movie clip with 10 navigation buttons. I’ve imported it into my main movie clip which has 10 different frames.

When a button is clicked it would be so nice to see it select the proper frame that goes with the button.

What I require is very similar to the tutorial for “A full flash site”. In fact I started my site with the help of the tutorial. Perhaps if there’s additional code for this tutorial to specify the frame when it loads?

I dunno… I’m digging…

Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

Cheers!
