    Question making scrolling buttons have rollover actions that control an instance

    ok so heres the problem i want the scrolling buttons to tell a movie that on a seperate layer but in the same area of the flash what frames to goto on rollover and rollout

    ive uploaded the source and if any of you can help me this is something ive edited from a tutorial on flash kit and am trying to improve by adding the rollover effects

    i was pretty sure i had gotten the AS correct to get it to work ive even tried using TellTarget .... ive tried changing little things thinking i was overlooking something.. i get no errors when the file is ran with the actionscript as uploaded

    also thanks to anyone who is willing to try and help me our on this one im sure its something simple im over looking

    i only have one button with the AS on it for now and it is the blue one.. until i could get it working i saw no point in doing the rest

    ok if u check out the source file i uploaded there are many movieclips within

    the main MC that contains the working parts of this is named "p2_imgSlider_mc"

    within this movieclip are the buttons wich are named "imgbox1_mc" through "imgbox10_mc"


    i would like these imgbox#_mc's to control another movieclip i have named "names_mc"

    i started with imgbox3_mc trying to get it on rollover to have "names_mc" goto and play (or stop it doesnt matter because i have AS on each frame telling it to stop) frame #3

    and it would be sequential for each imgbox#_mc

    hence "imgbox10_mc" would tell "names_mc" on rollover to gotoandplay frame 10

    also i have tried labeling each frame of "names_mc" and tried pointing to those instead of frame numbers.. i just cant figure out what im doing wrong here
