Next button trouble in AS2
This is most likely a simple fix. I am having trouble with my next button. I can get it to work but not the way I want it to. Right now, when I click the next button, it will go to the next on the list in my xml, but once I get to the end, it goes to undefined rather then starting over. Does that make sense, did I explain it ok. Below is my code. In red in the next button code (simple, but obviously wrong). Thanks for the help in advanced.
