Hi everyone. I have a movie where I have the Navigationla system in a movie clip, but I cannot figure out how to make, say, a button in a movie clip, to go to a frame outside of the movie clip (except for the obvious solution of putting the rest of the site in the movie clip also, but I am too far in progress with the site to do that unless absoultely necisary). Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You need to use Tell Target.
eg to target the timeline of your main movie from a movie clip
use
Begin Tell Target ("/")
Go to and Play (5)
End Tell Target
Let me know if you need more,
Rich.
OK so how I understand this
On (Release)
Begin Tell Target ("Scene,Frame#")
Go to and play (Frame)
End Tell Target
End On
Is this correct?? Thanks
~Chuck
Yes you are almost right:
On (Release)
Begin Tell Target ("Movie clip instance "/" coresponds to main time line clip")
Go to and play ("Frame")
End Tell Target
End On
cph2686,
If you're still stuck, I've given detailed instructions on using tell target for your problem. Look in thread created by Marcebra 08-10-2000 03:31pm
Hope this helps

P.S if you need more Info Look In the help Section About Targets
"/"= Main Time Line
"../" Up one level
"../../" two levels up
etc...
_level*=telling target a level
and it goes on
