hi,i would like to know why the pre-made flash button in flash mx doesnt work when you do the following:
1. drag the pre-made instance of the button on to the stage
2. make it a button by pressing f8
3. double-clicking on the button to open up the 4 frames (up,over,down,hit)
4. inserting frames on both the over and down frames
5. inserting a key frame on the hit frame, deleting the button on the hit frame only and drawing a box where the button would be on the hit frame.
6. click on the button while on the up frame and entering in the following action script:
-----------------------
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay(10);
}
-----------------------
end.
Once i have done all that i press f12 to see it working and what happens is the text that was on the button disapears and only the actual shape of the button is shown, also the button doesnt navigate to frame 10.
please help.
