I have a problem, and hopefully somone would be able to help me out ..

I've created movie clip, in which when you Roll Over it, it will load another movieclip within that frame which will display the menu (and in there are the buttons that link the scenes together).

My question is, how do I get the movieclip that is within a movieclip, that is again in another movie clip to link to the next scene? Can it even be done with one of the movie clips asking as a roll over?

I'm quite the actionscrippting newb.

Please help! :huh:

hrmm ... i tried to use those tutorials, but they don't seem to be working :puzzle:

here's the swf version of my file:

I'm trying to get the buttons on the right panel (under "navigation") to link to the first and second scene.
They don't work, so I had to make another set of buttons on the main timeline to link the scenes together, just so you can see the difference.

heres the original FLA MX version of my file:

thanks for the URL's though!

I think you will have a difficult time getting these MC's to work, they are so layered. How about trying something like the fla I've attached?
