Does anyone know why the code

on (release) {

root.nextFrame(5);

}

would not work? It is on a button and for some reason it is not working on one frame?

Thanks for your help!

Correct answer Ned Murphy

In AS2 it is "_root", and nextFrame() does not accept any arguments, it only does what it says, goes to the next frame in the timeline. If you want to go to frame 5 and frame 5 is not the next frame, then you need to use gotoAndStop(5).
