As you can see from the title I have a problem with movie clip buttons, I've looked at the p2l database but I couldn't find anything that helped

Here is the actionscript which I've used on my home button

on(release){
	_root.gotoAndStop("Home", 1)
}

I have all my buttons in buttons_mc, each button has an instance name, for example, the Home buttons instance name is home_btn.

The syntax is correct but my button just doesn't work, obviously there is something i'm missing, if it helps i'll give someone the fla [that is if they would be kind enough to help]

Thanks in advance.

Do you realise that: _root.gotoAndStop("Home", 1) is trying to find the scene named Home? Remove the next parameter to make it link to frames.

Yeah, I need it to link to my different pages, Home, About, Services ect..., I forgot to mention that ><

Also to link to frames I would need to use that labbeling thing right?

you don't need the _root..

just use this one:

sceneTwo_btn.onRelease = function(){
 gotoAndPlay("sceneTwo", 1);
};

Thanks a lot it works but its stopped the animation on my buttons now, I think i'll just take my buttons out of the movie clip now its too much hassle.
