Flash 8 Help - Gotoandplay() action script?

Question

Hey.

I havnt used flash for a few years now, And i forget a simple thing.

My frame has a stop action on frame 66, with a button. I want the button to take me to frame 70

I have this code on my button: gotoAndPlay(70);

And i get this error:

**Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=Text, frame=66:Line 1: Statement must appear within on handler

gotoAndPlay(70);

Im pretty certain i missed some action script out, But i just dont know what. And tutorials dont seem to help.

So if anyway can get me past this, as i feel so dumb for not knowing ;/

Cheers.

Answer 1

add the code to the button:

on(press){

gotoAndPlay(70);

}

or

on(release){

gotoAndPlay(70);

}

both do what you want
