Skip Intro

Hi - I can't seem to get my "skip intro" button to work.

I have 3 scenes - one is the preloader (called "preloader"), one is an intro (called "intro") and the third is the actual site (called "main").

On both the preloader and the intro I have a button with the following script:

on (release){
gotoAndPlay("main",1);
}

It works on the intro, but when clicked within the preloader, it just takes you to the intro scene.

The only actions in the "main" scene on the first frame are loading all the texts, and there are no actions at all in the "intro" scene.

What do you think? What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

Mandi

Correct answer fire orchid
nah - i realised that i can't even do what i wanted to do - the preloader is the preloader... don't want to skip that - it is the same preloader for the whole site :)

silly me :p

on (release){
gotoAndPlay("main",1);
}

what you've written is the correct code. if you're within another timeline, you'll want to script it...

on(release){
_root.gotoAndPlay("main",1);
}

Hi - no, the "main" scene is the main site - (340 frames long) - i just posted what was in the first frame of that scene in case that was making a difference...

the movie goes "preloader" > "intro" > "main"

it is the button in the "preloader" scene that is the problem

if your "main" scene only has one frame, sending it to "gotoAndPlay(1);" may send it to frame 2, which means the intro scene...

is that happening?
