or

stop();
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(rewind == true){
prevFrame();
}
}

this.onRollOver = function(){
rewind = false;
play();
}

this.onRollOut = function(){
rewind = true;
}

Don't know exactly what you are doing with the rewind and whatnot, but try adding this code to the button's actions (NOT THE TIMELINE!)

on(release)
{
gotoAndPlay("scene2",1);
}

Your actionscript is in the wrong place. It should be on the timeline like you have it but it should be on the main timeline for scene 1 not the timeline for the next_mc button. the code should be modified as such and placed on the actions layer of scene 1:

Make sure to give the button an instance name.

stop();

next_mc.onEnterFrame = function(){
	if(rewind == true){
		prevFrame();
	}
}


next_mc.onRollOver = function(){
	rewind = false;
	this.play();
}

next_mc.onRollOut = function(){
	rewind = true;
}

next_mc.onRelease = function(){
	gotoAndPlay("scene2",1);
}

The rollout fuction didnt work, so i just put the onRelease function in scene 1, and the rest in next_mc. but thanks for your help VI Knight

[scene 1]
stop();

next_mc.onRelease = function(){
gotoAndPlay("scene2",1);
}


[next_mc]
stop();

this.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(rewind == true){
prevFrame();
}
}


this.onRollOver = function(){
rewind = false;
this.play();
}

this.onRollOut = function(){
rewind = true;
}

I thought my problem was over, but im still having trouble. i added some extra frame in scene 1 and now it stops working, it was working before when i only have one frame.

your release statement is not sending it to the right place. Note the capitalization. flash is extremely case sensitive so you have to be careful of that. It should be.

next_mc.onRelease = function(){
  gotoAndPlay("Scene2","S2");
}

but the rest of the code should be taken out of the button also and placed on the main timeline.

I asttached the corrected file. it works for me here.
