more newbie stuff

[methical]

ok this is my site. if you look at my scroller you see that the little buttons on top move it and there are buttons on the scroller itself that open pages I haven't played with yet. now, it you right click on the scroller and hit play a blank box drops down. I want the buttons on the scroller itself to open boxes like that on the scroller. does that make sense? help?

just put the drop down box thing in a mc, give the mc an instance name, and on the button you want to trigger it, put a tellTarget action with play as the action.

your code will look similar to this:

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

snag!

my code =
"on (release) {
tellTarget ("about") {
}
}
on (release) {
play ();
}"

error = "Target not found: Target="about" Base="_level0.contentscroll""

I think I might be doing the instance wrong...?

nm I figured that out all by myself

new problem though...

I did the instance...the command line and stuff...when I click on the button though nothing happens...
