Hello Everyone,

I’m working on making a small flash site, the client has requested that the site respond the the Back button :sigh:

So I googled, and found this great tutorial:  
See It Here: [http://www.robertpenner.com/backbutton\_mx/](http://www.robertpenner.com/backbutton_mx/)  
Get Source Here: [http://www.robertpenner.com/experiments/flas/backbutton.zip](http://www.robertpenner.com/experiments/flas/backbutton.zip)

Bascially I want to change the current code on the numbered HTML pages (1.html - 5.html) currently this is the code inside these pages

```auto
  <script language="JavaScript">
	parent.flashframe.setPage(5);
	  </script>

```

…and I’d like to change the fuction within these pages to something like this

```auto
  <script language="JavaScript">
	parent.flashframe.**gotoAndStop(15);**
	  </script>

```

The only fuction I want to change is to have the code take me to a specific frame in flash. - Oh, and “gotoAndStop(15);” is not working. Does anyone know how to do this???

Please help. :geek:

Not totally positive but I think you can change flashframe to the name of your movie clip that contains the frame you want to go to. Also, you might want to consider using a frame label instead of a number - its more convenient.

I figured it would be easier to get it to go to a certian frame. I do have labels in my timeline 😉 as well as the anchors.

Thanks for responding

Can anyone help??
