Keypress event not working in second scene

[Linda McDaniel]

I am a high school teacher who is teaching Actionscript 3.0 for the first time. I am teaching my students how to create multiple scenes to understand actionscipt interactivity. The first scene has a button. The second scene has something happen when a key is pressed. The problem is that the second scene doesn't work. Flash doesn't even show the trace command that a key has been pressed. Keypresses work fine when done in the first scene, but when put in the second scene after a button has been pressed, it doesn't recognize the keypress event.

Well don't forget that what appears in the first scene doesn't exist in the second automatically. You need to treat them as if they are two separate SWF files. If you can get it to work in the first scene, then you need to duplicate that ENTIRE function in the second scene.
