I am creating a site for a client. I don't like drop down menus, so what I want to do is create a forward and back button to navigate the sub pages. For instance my navigation is

Home
Abstract
Animals
People

Whereas with animals have additional pages labeled lions, elephants, tigers ...etc When you click on animals I want a forward and back btn to navigate to the ohter pages. I've tried a couple of tutorials I found on kirupa.com and flashkit but they do not work. Can someone please lend a hand with this. If it will help I can provide a link for the swf file.

what if you put each section on a separate frame? You can created a layer titled "labels" and at each frame (that you have a section) you put in the instance box the name of that section. that way you can say reference each section by telling the timeline to play that frame.

backbutton.onRelease = function(){
gotoAndPlay("home");
}

not sure if that is what you are looking for...hope it helps

Actually I do have my site structured that way. I have a labels layer as well as a buttons and actions layer. The funny thing is when I try this method on this site for some reason it doesn't work. However when I create this senario in a new window it works perfectly. I have a couple of ideas I want to try out. I do appreciate your help in any case.
