Timeline blues

im trying to call a movie to play from the level1 timeline with this code and it’s not working.

on (release) {
tellTarget ("/night") {
play();
}
}

the error i’m getting is,… Target not found: Target="/night" Base="_level0.instance1"

what is the correct code?

you have to put an instance on the movie clip, select the movie clip and in the properties toolbar notice it says instance name type in the name you want for the movie clip and then change the code to this

on (release) {play(_root.mcinstance);
}

it should work if not someone else will help you out since i dont use buttons im not quite sure, oh and telltarget is deprecated so i suggest you dont use tell targetting :wink:
