I need some FLASH HELP! - GoFuckYourself.com

I'm trying to figure out what this does.

on (release) {
tellTarget ("_level2") {
gotoAndStop ("Image 5");
};
}

I know it means that when the button is clicked, it should tell the parent
frame to do "gotoAndStop" but the part that confuses me is the "Image 5"
which is non existant in either the calling flash or the parent window flash
yet it still works.

Help!
Thanks!

not that savy with flash, but my guess is tell the target window named _level2 to do the function specified called "image 5"

then again that's prolly not that helpful LOL

thats what i figured too, but can't find shit in the other module called "Image 5". err!

are Flash functions hidden in some secrew place? I have the actions window open, but its not there.

"Image 5" should be the label of a frame in "_level2", instead of saying gotoAndStop(444) (for example) you can label frame 444 as "test" and use gotoAndStop ("test")

Another possibilty might be the labeling one of the images as "Image 5" (thru content list of that flash movie) and calling that.

That's all I can say without seeing it, I hope that helps
