flash (macromedia): I am fairly new with flash and am having a problem with my navigation buttons
in CS3. I have created a dropdown menu, but the buttons on the menu will not
direct to different frames like a want them to. However they will work with
getURL to link to an external site.

An example of the actionscript I am using on the button would be:

on(release) {
gotoAndStop("Scene 1", 4);

}
(I want it to go and stop on the 4th frame when clicked)

If I put a button on the main page, out of the drop down menu with the code:
on(release) {
gotoAndStop(4);

}

it works fine.

I know it is probably something simple that I am doing wrong. Any help would
be greatly appreciated. Thanks

If you scan the latest posts, you will see mine asking about scenes. If you have the option, you should try not to use them:

bingo! mhunter :)

@Justin: if you have a lot of content that you've been working on, and can't
change to a single scene (which would be best) you might be able to work around
this problem, by using frame 'labels'. make a new layer in the doc and place a
'label' at frame4 (when you select the frame you will see a input box for this
in the properties panel) enter a name there, then from the button write the
call as:

on(release) {
gotoAndStop('Scene1', '[label name]');
}
