Linking Troubles (Please help)

[jaymancd]

I've been having a problem linking a button in my movie in such a way that when it is released it will jump to an anchored "target" that is present w/in the same html document as the movie itself.

I anchored a particular image w/

<a name="jayman"><the image directory></a>

I adjusted the actions of the button to link to the anchored point w/ the following lines:

On (Release)
Get URL ("#jayman", window="_self")
End On

I found that upon releasing over the given button, the page merely reloads and does not jump to the image I have anchored. I am stumped.

Does anyone know a way to do this? I hope you understand what I mean. Any help would be enormously appreciated.

thanks,

to begin with ? make sure you're spelling it as it is in the flash file....
