I apologise if this is not the correct way to do this - it is my first time using a forum...

I am trying to create what I believe to be a very simple rollover button that produces three buttons that pop up then click on a button and gotoAndPlay a label. The rollover and pop up I have been able to do successfully - however the mouse CLICK event for the buttons that pop up won't work. I know this should be simple - but I have been struggling with this for days. I am determined to do this using AS3 as I do not see the point in going backwards to AS2.
If anyone could please help that would be greatly appreciated.
My action script is as follows:

thanks doghouseJim for the reply... tried that but still no joy...

I just went back and tried AS2 as well - out of pure frustration - and I can't get it to work with that either...

I don't know what I am doing wrong...

Your code looks fine, so it is likely some other issue. Do you get any error messages? Are you sure the buttons have their instance names? Are the buttons directly on the timeline that you are commanding to goto, or are they inside a movieclip?
