gotoAndPlay isn't working

[_DracoLord_]

Using Flash MX... trying to nake different mcs play depending on what key you press... right now only the 1 and 2 keys are set up... when i tried this:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (Key.isDown(Key.getCode(49))) {
Play();
}
}

it played both the answer_1_hidden and answer_2_hidden clips, so i tried changing the code to target each movie clip specifically but it doesn't do anything now:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (Key.isDown(Key.getCode(49))) {
_root.answer_1_hidden.gotoAndPlay();
}
}

Any ideas?

Thanks

gotoAndPlay requires something to be passed to it in the brackets, either the number of the frame

code:

---

_root.answer_1_hidden.gotoAndPlay(2);

---

or a frame label

code:

---

_root.answer_1_hidden.gotoAndPlay("start");

---

Did this solve the problem?

i tried adding frames and frame labels but both ways it plays both mcs, not just the one thats supposed to

your code needs amending slightly

code:

---

if (Key.isDown(49)) {

	_root.answer_1_hidden.gotoAndPlay(2);

}
