wow, thanks a lot for all the responses guys. i appreciate it. i'm sorry i was not more clear about what i was doing. guess i was not expecting so many replies.
i'll try to be more clear. the buttons i am using are on the main timeline. (level0) each button loads a new .swf into level1.
so the following Actionscript is supposed to play a "close" sequence in whatever movie is loaded into level1... and then the main timeline goes to a corresponding section (information).
If i use the code as you see it here, it ONLY plays the "close" sequence on level1. it does NOT move the main timeline. HOWEVER, if i comment out the level1 statement, it WILL move the main timeline. It only does one or the other! That's why i thought it was so strange.
on (release) {
_level1.gotoAndPlay("close");
gotoAndPlay("information"
);
}If you're still with me, check it out here. http://radiculture.com/portfolio…
Hit any of the nav buttons, and it will successfully proceed from the main graphic. NOW, hit one of them again and all you'll see it do is play "close". it does not move the main timeline.
p.s. I also tried using gotoAndPlay() rather than play(). just thought i'd see if something else worked.
whew..long post.
thanks.
