animated button wont work!!!

[stevenson_alan]

I finally got an animated button to roll in and out using

if (btnplay ==true){
Play();
}else{
stop();
}

etc...

It works well apart for the problem that when the button wont do anything when asigned an action to it.

There seems to be so many ways to do these buttons.

Can any one guide me in the right direction to get these buttons to work full proof.

Thank you for any help (Ive been trying this for months and had a million diferent ways of doing it).

Oh that looks spot on mate.

Im having a look at it and exactly what I need.

Thanks so much.

Ok, this is where I always get messed up.

On that example, the button inside the movieclip was a link webpage. I need it to go to a part in the main movie. If I tell it to go to a frame (eg 5) it will go to the one in the movie clip. If I try to load another .swf it doesnt do anything.

I keep tripping up at this same point.

You have to target the timeline, then a frame number or always better a labeled frame...

code:

---

on(release){

_level0.gotoAndPlay("my_target1");

}

See my first post in this thread...

As for loading a movie, did you include _root or _level0 if loading in a container clip?

What's the code you did try?
