Gotoandstop help --- please !

[tozstyle]

hi peeps,

I'm having trouble with something that should be simple ( probably just me )

in my scene I have 10 frames , each frame is stopped and runs a separate movie within each frame. the movie on frame 1 is called "movie1" and has 40 frames within it. On frame 10 on the main timeline ( root ) I have a button called "gohome" (in the instance name) that I would like ( once clicked ) to take the user to frame 20 within "movie1" movie on frame 1 ( I have labelled frame 20 "new" ).

I thought the script should look something like this

gohome.onRelease = function() {
_root.movie1.gotoAndPlay("new");
}

but It won't do anything,

If i do

gohome.onRelease = function() {
_root.gotoAndStop("start"); <--- btw "start" is frame 1's label
}

then it works, in as much as it plays "movie1" but i am trying to start the movie half way through on the users second time round.

Please help it's driving me nuts.

Thanks

ps , posted in flash 8 forum aswell but realised i am using flash mx pro 2004 - so re posted here
