Button not working

[mancroft]

I have knocked together two fla files from Flashkit into one to make a joint contact and tell a friend form.

It works except for one thing.

There are two buttons.

The user enters name and email details (only has to do this once for both forms) and then presses either the recommend or the contact button.

The code attached to the contact button is:

on (release) {

if ((entryvalid == "1&quot) {
gotoAndplay("wait"
}

else if ((entryvalid == "0&quot) {
contactcheck ();
}

}

The code attached to the tell a friend button is:

on (release) {
if (entryvalid == "1&quot {
gotoAndplay("recommend"


} else if ((entryvalid == "0&quot) {
contactcheck();
}
}


wait an recommend are labels.

wait is in frame 5 of the top layer

recommend is in frame 22 of the layer beneath it.

The problem is that when the recommend button is pressed for the FIRST time only, the contact form is displayed.

When the same button is placed thereafter it works OK.

The contact button works properly all the time.

Any ideas?

Try adding _root to your gotoAndPlay's... Capital "P" on "Play". No need for double "(( ))" in your if statements nor for the "else if"...

on (release) {
if (entryvalid == "1&quot {
_root.gotoAndPlay("wait"
} else {
contactcheck();
}
