ok
I have a main scene called "main" with actions on different frames where the timeline stops and plays a movie clip.not with a tell target, the movie clip is sitting on that frame.
now when that mc finishes playing i want it to go to a certain frame on the main timeline.Ive tried to put an action on the last frame of the movie clip that goes

gotoAndPlay ("main", "whatis1");
but this does not seem to work, instead the main timeline just keeps looping the mc on that frame.
please help my ideas are exhausted.
