I simply want to assign a variable to the current frame of the main timeline (not movieclip timeline) I already know about _currentframe and it doesn't help in this case.

im creating a character sheet and all i have to do is get the character to do a few things, im using Stan from american dad, so he draws his gun, salutes, and does this guns speech, only problem is. i can get him to salute by using the code
on(release){
gotoAndPlay("2");
}
this links fine, the salute is in a movieclip on frame 2 of the timeline, and the button is set to link to this.problem starts after the movieclip finishes playing, how to return to frame 1 on the main timeline, ive tried gotoAndStop("1") amongst other things (gotoAndStop ("Scene 1", 1)ive also tried frameLables too but that didnt work, though im not sure if i was doing that right to start with.Then im having a problem with my other buttons, even when set to on(release){gotoAndPlay("3");} they still go to frame 2 (with salute on)

I've got what I think isn't a real tough one however I can't seem to get this working.
I have a MovieClip. This movie clip has 21 buttons. These 21 buttons should be forwarding the user to frames 60-81 on the maintime line.
The actionscript I've added is not providing any errors however it's working either as these buttons don't do anything unfortuanlty.
Below is a sample of the code i've placed within the MovieClip itself, as the buttons and the button names are contained in the movieClip.
AS3 Code Being Used
button1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, button1Click);function button1Click(e:MouseEvent):void{ gotoAndStop(55)}
This code is listed for each button instance and to forward the user to a frame on the main timeline (NOT the timeline in the MovieClip itself).
Again, this code is contained in the MovieClip itself and not on the main timeline, as the buttons exist in the movieClip I.E. button1_btn to button21_btn
Lastly, to provide a visual idea of what i'm expereincing, please refer to screenshot embeeded in this message or the attachment (same thing).

I have this code on the middle frame of a movieclip in my main timeline. When the nav buttons are pressed they play an animation and report their names to a variable called "navigation" that's declared in the first frame of the main timeline.

I have 6 frames on the main timeline each with a different movieclip. Is it possible that when one movie clips finishes running it will go to he next frame on the maintime line and run the next movieclip on the next frame with AS3?

I have two frames in the timeline of my flash file. On frame 1 there is a movie clip. How can I access this movie clip with code located in frame 2?
It doesn't matter whether the mc is already placed on the stage or is added dynamically from the Library - I just need to access the alpha property. I can provide a more detailed description of my file if needed.

I have this movieclip with buttons residing in the main timeline. This movieclip is set with an _alpha = 0. How do I disabled this movieclip/buttons in the main timeline as well? The movieclip will be visible only if another button(not within this movieclip) is pressed. I tried using the following but it doesn't work. movieclipInstanceName.enabled = false; How do I go about doing it?

I have a movieClip sitting on the first frame of my main timeline. When it gets to the last fram of the movieClip, I want it to go and play frame 2 of the main timeline. I have this code on the last frame of my movieClip:
[Code]....
It actually doesn't throw it just once, it keeps throwing it as long as my preview window is open. As if it just keeps hitting that frame repeatedly. Am I doing this correctly? Or is there a better way to do it in AS3?

I make a website. First I have a frame with a movieclip, where my entire page is within.Inside of that is where all of my pages is in different frames, and in each of these frames there are other movieclips with content. My example:Top level /Entire site/My pages, in different frames /Movies/Pictures/About/Etc./Content (inside the "Movies") /Info about movies/Movie one/Movie two/Etc./My problem is as easy as this: I will link from the "My pages" level, to the first frame in "Content" (info about movies)If i just link to the, "Movies" frame, I can't get from "Movie One" to Info about movies by pressing the button, wich lies on the "My pages" Level.

My script have a list of .swf files and needs to play them one by one. My problem is that i can't detect when the movieclip (containing the swf) completes playing.
I understood that i need to copmare between _currentframe and _totalframes of the moviecip but i keep getting 1 as the _currentframe (my main timeline contains only 1 frame).
Code:
var mcLoader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var loadListener:Object = new Object();

I am currently in the middle of making a "sniping" flash game. In the first level there are a series of moving targets which are also movie clips. Inside the movie clip there is a 7 frame animation of the target exploding. Inside that is a tween of the target moving up and down. And inside that there is a plain old button.
What I want to happen is when you click on the moving target it explodes and brings you to a new frame of the main timeline. (ex. Main Timeline frame #27) But I'm pretty sure it thinks I was to play the seven frame animation of it exploding and then go to frame 27 inside the movie clip, rather then frame 27 on the main timeline.
Here's what my AS looks like on the target (ActionScript 2.0 is what I'm using.)
on (press) {
play();
}
on (release){
gotoAndStop(27)}
So how do I make it explode and then take me to frame 27 on the main timeline?

I use eventListeners to jump between frames.One of my frames displays a video. I imported the video as a component using the 'import video' function.It plays fine.When navigating away from the video I use the myVideo.stop(); command in AS3 to stop the video from continuing to play.or some reason, when I do this the buttons on my main page stop working.The code I use on the movie frame is:
cr_back_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onCRBackClick);
function onCRBackClick(e:MouseEvent):void

I have a menu with 4 movieclip buttons (movieclips that act as buttons) that when pressed make the timeline jump to a certain frame. The mc buttons have both "onrollover" and "selected" states. However the timeline also moves on its own, even if no button is pressed.
I need the buttons to assume the "selected" state when the timeline reaches a specific frame (as if the button had been pressed to make the timeline jump there). But I can't figure out how to do it althought I think it must be quite simple.
This is the code I'm using (controls the buttons and its on the first frame of the main timeline)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
// create an array of all nav buttons in group
var groupinfo:Array = [birds, bears, bats, bunnies];
// create constants to define start and stop of fadein and fadeout sequences
// (fadeout should be exactly the same sequence as fadein, in reverse frame order)

When we want to know if a MovieClip animation has ended, we use to listen the enter frame event and check if current frame is the final one (where the movieclip frame has a stop).
But we've thought on a new idea: to extend MovieClip and override stop method. In the override we dispatch an event indicating the animation is ended. So, we hope the clip to find a stop in a frame, call the overriden method and execute both, the super.stop() and the event dispatch.

I have recently followed a tutorial to make a movieclip in flash that makes buttons spin around a point depending on the mouse position. I have made my own version off this and would like to use it in a full flash website that i am making at the moment.
The only problem that i am having is with aligning this clip and as it is made up of script i cant physicly drag it to were i want it. I understand how to alighn this with x/y positioning but when i preview the flash in a web browser it is positioned correctly but then when i 'full screen' the browser this clip jumps about 4 inches down the page.

gotoAndStop(parent."framename");

So I have a frame labeled 'init' and a button called _exit. I want _exit on click to keep going back until it reaches 'init'
I'm guessing something like this but it doesn't work:
[AS]_exit.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK , function(e:Event):void
{
if(currentFrame!='init'){
gotoAndPlay(currentFrame-1)
}
});
