Really sorry about this…i feel really stupid at the moment…ive completed the above tutorial, which works fine, however ive now put the navigation in its own movie clip (from the library). The tut does say that i need to address the ‘container’ mc correctly…but i can’t!! Ive tried so many combinations of the script that im losing the will to live please help!..

The script i have at the moment on the button is:

on (release) { if (\_root.currMovie == undefined) { \_root.currMovie = “test1”; container.loadMovie(“test1.swf”); } else if (\_root.currMovie != “test1”) { if (container.\_currentframe \>= container.midframe) { \_root.currMovie = “test1”; container.play();}}}
