    Default Need some help with buttons in MC's

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Hello all,

    I placed a button deep within some MCs here is the path
    _root.folder_nav.tbar.b1mc

    So, on the main time line I have a MC called folder_nav within folder_nav is a
    MC called tbar. Wihtin the tbar mc is another MC called b1mc the button title
    b1 resides inside of the b1mc

    I am tryin to get the button (b1) to go to a frame on the main timeline(root)
    I tried the obvious (to me anyway):

    on(release)
    {
    gotoAndPlay("_root","pg6");
    }
    Obviously that was wrong.....

    I also tried just the frame label (dropped root) nothing happens. Can somebody
    please tell me what I am doing wrong?
    Thanks in advance!
