Flash buttons in "freeze" state

Hi guys,

I seem to have a minor button problem...

If you have 20 frames in a movie, and you place an instance of a button in each frame (only one symbol in lib) to go to the next frame in the movie, it seems that the button only does his trick the first time.

If I click the button once, then the flash movie shows the next frame, but after that I need to move my mouse to refresh the movie (I think...) otherwise the button doesn't respond to the command. Does somebody know the secret how to solve this problem? Do I need to reload my symbols after each command? And what command in actionscript will I have to use?

it's kinda urgent, I need to publish... so all help is very much appreciated!!!

tnx in advance,

greetz,

I attached the following to the buttons:

on (release) {
nextFrame();
}

looks like it's not refreshing the state of the button, because it hangs after te first time you click the button...
 
Post a link to your .fla, zipped up and in a MX only format, not MX2004.

You'd have a better chance of getting an answer if your .fla was in a MX only format, and zipped up.

You would have to save a copy of your MX2004 .fla, (using Save as...) and changing the Document type to MX only in the Save as... window.
