Hey ppl

I have a weird problem  
I have a movieclip which contains a textfield (mc\_traininginfo)  
The movieclip is placed on frame 20

I also have a menu which is on frame 10 and 20 (frame 10 is the homepage).  
When i click on a button on frame 10 it should go to frame 20.  
The textfield on frame 20 appears. But the weird thing is, that it dissapears as soon as the onRelease action is finished.  
When i click again it appears again for just a second.

code on the main timeline  
\_root.btn\_training.hitBtn.onRelease = function(){  
gotoAndStop(20);  
}
