flash (macromedia):
Buttons are erratic and I don't know why. All I'm doing is telling them to go
to called frames and somettimes they dissapear (the back and next buttons.)
I've checked the site over and over again, but I can't figure it out. The
website is http://www.chadforemanphotography.com

Seems okay to me. Next button disappears, but I assume that's because there are no more images to show?

I can't tell you what is wrong, but I do have one observation.
Whatever you are testing to make the BACK and NEXT buttons
visible, it doesn't depend on _currentframe and _totalframes.
If it did, there's no way that the BACK button would be
visible on Frame 1, and it is. That alone suggests where
the problem is, but without actually seeing your test code,
I can't suggest any explanations.

I don't think it's the buttons , I took the file from cache and load it into
level into newly made FLA file. It came out tracing SWF as not existing so
I know you loading something in level.
Than i went back to your site and realized after the button click if you right
click your movie it shows MOVIE NOT LOADED which could only be one reason in such scenario,
you unloading your main movie or loading new one into main movie level.
DO NOT replace level zero with anything , otherwise anything loaded previously is simply gone
and replaced by loading content.
Plus , because the content has not been loaded I assume you actually unload level and than load
something into it. DO NOT bother , if you loading anything in same level it will
automatically replace the existing content so there is no need for UNLOAD .
Load it in higher level and your button will work fine. If you don't want to see the main level
you can simply turn it invisible using

on (release) {
loadMovieNum("somemovie.swf", 1);
_level0._visible=0;
}

Than to turn it back on from the loaded movie simply use _level0._visible=1;
