I am helping someone (using MX 2004) who is trying to send the playback head to different scenes via a dropdown menu in a movieclip. We have tried many variations but still can make it work.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

don't use the goto functions and don't use scenes to navigate. use frame labels and the goto methods:

_root.gotoAndPlay("scene2_frame1"); // <- label that frame.
