Hi guys,

I have the following script:

set (“positieMC”, “homeMC”);

\_level0.contentMC[positieMC].homeBTN.onRelease = function() {  
gotohome();  
set (“positieMC”, “homeMC”);  
};  
\_level0.contentMC[positieMC].fashionBTN.onRelease = function() {  
gotofashion();  
set (“positieMC”, “fashionMC”);  
};  
\_level0.contentMC[positieMC].wijBTN.onRelease = function() {  
gotowij();  
set (“positieMC”, “wijMC”);  
};  
\_level0.contentMC[positieMC].overheidBTN.onRelease = function() {  
gotooverheid();  
set (“positieMC”, “overheidMC”);  
};  
\_level0.contentMC[positieMC].btocBTN.onRelease = function() {  
gotobtoc();  
set (“positieMC”, “btocMC”);  
};  
\_level0.contentMC[positieMC].btobBTN.onRelease = function() {  
gotobtob();  
set (“positieMC”, “btobMC”);  
};  
\_level0.contentMC[positieMC].commercialsBTN.onRelease = function() {  
gotocommercials();  
set (“positieMC”, “commercialsMC”);  
};  
\_level0.contentMC[positieMC].diversenBTN.onRelease = function() {  
gotodiversen();  
set (“positieMC”, “diversenMC”);  
};

and I want these targetpath rewritten with the new variable of positieMC everytime I click the button. But somehow this doesn’t work. I have the idea that theze targetpath are not rewritten when I click the button.

Does anyone has an idea?

Thanks!
