I have a simple set up using labels; when a button is clicked, it goes to the appropriate labeled frame. This WAS working just fine; now when the buttons are clicked, all of the labels are skipped, the playhead jumps to the last frame. I also have some remote text to load into txt boxes on each of these labeled frames, and now that is not working either. The code I am using on the buttons is:

on (release) {
gotoAndStop("chris");
}


and the code for loading the remote txt is

loadVariablesNum("chrisbio.txt", 0);


I have my content named, I have my instances named......


What would cause all of this to suddenly stop working?


Help! :mad:

Upload the .fla :)

Yeah... As Adrenaline said, you might want to upload the sample FLA file or explain how your movie is composed...

Basic things you might want to check is to see if you have duplicate frame label...
And, make sure that you are pointing the right path...
This line...
gotoAndStop("chris");
can be
_root.gotoAndStop("chris");
or
_level2.gotoAndStop("chris");
or
_level3.someMovieClip.gotoAndStop("chris");
depending on the location...

I got it to work..... I set up the sections of my websites using scenes for the visual organization, then use loadMovie to switch between them. To upload the fla for you guys to see, I copied the frames into a new document, and it worked just fine... so now I am just loading in that new movie I created and it all works. I am thinking there was a layer issue or something, as I had a little intro before the whole frame label section. There is no use in posting the fla now that it all works. Thanks though!
