Hi..
To go to the next scene:

on (release) {
gotoAndPlay ("Scene 2", 1);
}

If your targeting any scene from within an MC then first target _root, followed by a frame label:

on (release) {
_root.goToAndPlay("myFrameLabel");
}

Hope this helps.

Let me be clear.

On release of this button
I need to goto SCENE-2.

Hi rajarajan..

It sounds like theres something amiss somewhere. The codes I provided earlier will do exactly what you want.
Check to make sure your scripting is right.
Why not do a test, just 'copy & paste' the above code directly into the buttons action panel, then control/test movie.

Hope this helps.

rajarajan perhaps post the exact names of your scenes. Spaces or hiphens can make a difference...
You can view these in flash by clicking the Edit Scene button (square button with a pic of what look slike a box with the lid open, top right hand side of the Flash editting area). Clicking this button will show the scenes you have and their names.

Cheers

Just like Marx code.

if you do this

InstanceName.onRelease = function (){
gotoAndStop("Scene 2", 1);


InstanceName refers to the instance name you have give your button..

Hope this helps.

Wow! I haven't touched Flash for nigh on 7 years and I am still being quoted. Fame, fame, fame at last!

You haven't posted either since then? How did you happen to see this post?

Got an e-mail notification?

Yes - got an email notification and luckily I remembered my password.

Funny thing is - to this day - I still get emails off of people about a tutorial I posted on the sight all those years ago; even funnier thing is I have no idea how to answer them as I have forgotten how to use Flash.
