what are the possible reasons that a basic text scroll movie (w/ up and down scoll buttons as controllers) is not working right?
the movie scrolls down, but when the up button (which includes a _root.controller.gotoAndPlay command) is pressed nothing happens?

why not target the _y property of the textField instead?
playing a timeline for a scroller makes quite little sense.. you might consider just using a component scroller, drag and drop - bang done already.
Alternatively have a
buttonDown_mc.onPress = function()
{
textField._y --:
}buttonUp_mc.onPress = function()
{
textField._y ++:
}well that's the principle anyway, you'd want to have each function just set an Interval for a callback function which actually moves the textField. Also an onRelease function to clearInterval.
bingo doctor.

JazX---yes!
i must be a tightwad, don't want to pay $1 for the file download though.
i've been messing w/flashmx components but it seems changing the looke of the scrollbar is a pain and i really just want either up/down arrows or a minimal box you can drag...
