button not behaving

[ubauba]

I have a button with the following action assigned.

on (release) {
_root.MSlider.play(3);
gotoAndStop ("About");
}

I have 5 buttons & 5 labels, each button have the above actionscript assigned but different labels. Upon released the button will take me to the label but the MSlider instance will load on some labels but not all. Why does it do that? What am I doing wrong?

thank you

where is the label 'about'?

is it on mslider or on the current timeline?

my guess is that it is a path problem.

One layer has all 5 labels. The layer beneath that is the button layer with the action script above assigned. The instance MSlider is a movie clip; it is in the last layer stretched over 25 frames.


The labels, MC MSlider, and button layer are all in Scene 1.
