Warning > I am a newbie to flash, don't shoot me. Any help with the following issue would be greatly appreciated:
I have a movieclip (on the main timeline, Scene 1, no other scenes), within this movie clip is a button that I want to go to frame "76" on the main timeline (parent, root), not the timeline of the movieclip within this level...
Sounds simple, but I cannot get it to work. Using actionscript 2.0 (well trying to)...
on (release) {
this._parent.gotoAndPlay("76");}
This is got to be a piece of cake for any flash vet... Thanks in advance.

if the button's sitting on the main timeline as you say... all you need is the below...
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("76");
}

The "button" itself is within a movieclip on the main timeline... See below...
ROOT/MAIN TIMELINE
>>>>>within a movieclip is a button (so this would be a second "level">>> I just need to know how to get back to the MAIN timeline, not the timeline of the current movieclip.... ???? I am all flustered as this is got to be elementary and I am probably confusing...
