I am using a variant of this button that I found of this webpage

http://www.flashkit.com/movies/Butto...67/index.shtml

The button visually looks great, it animates when I roll over... however... functionally, I cannot get the button to do anything else. Such as jump to a frame in my main scene... or goto another scene.

The button itself is contained in a movie_clip, and for whatever reason flash doesn't allow goto and play (next Scene), it has that function turned off (why?)... and if it jumps to a frame, it's only the frame in that movie_clip and not the main movie... how do I get around this?

Any help is greatly appreciated...

(I tried to assign a boolean variable but it didn't seem to work either)In the main movie Set variable gotomenu = 0 then next frame if(gotomenu = 1)
goto and play (menu) <- In my main.

In the movie_clip button I have Set Variable:gotomenu = 1
on the onmouse(press) but it doesn't register it in my main movie again.
