dunno, could be. Have got the MX2004 bible, but it ain't explained in their at all. Will look at the tut. again. I think the problem is in the bit in bold. linking the .rootcurrent selection to the buttons. seen a link on a diff forum and he loaded new movies for each button. just can't figure it out.Just the one paragraph is confusing me

_root.currentSelection = target +" "+ sub;

i understand _root.current selection being the area where the text will load.

but
= target+" "=sub;

think this is the area i need to load the text.

Sorry newbie and flash. any easier navigation bars i can download to modify?

Basic site needs nav bar that loads new content on same screen.
