Simple script : Still Error #1009 -- Not using Actions in frame 2?

Question

Hi,

I get this error:

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

at Untitled_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()

And i think it is because of the fact that Actions are only in frame 1 and not in 2.

But how do i get Actions to work in frame 2 as well?

This is my code:

stop();

import flash.display.MovieClip;

import flash.events.MouseEvent;

var button1 : MovieClip =button1Mc;

var button2 : MovieClip =button2Mc;

button1.stop();

button2.stop();

button1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,goto2);

button2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,goto3);

function goto2(e:MouseEvent):void {

gotoAndStop(2,"Scene 1");

}

function goto3(e:MouseEvent):void {

gotoAndStop(1,"Scene 1");

}

Can anybody tell me how to get it to work?

if the error's from something in that code, either button1Mc or button2Mc don't exist when that code executes.

click file>publish settings>swf and tick 'permit debugging'. retest.

the problematic line number will be in the error message allowing you to pinpoint the problem and then correct it.
