Buttons on Sliding Timeline Not going to the right place

[janna30]

have created a timeline using a "slider" in Flash. The buttons (years) on the timeline should link to frames outside the movie clip with information.

However, all the buttons default to just the last frame of information rather than the frame they should be going to...although each has a different instance name. Has anyone run across this problem before?

The following is my code:

main frame:

Function turnOff() {
_root.mcYellow.gotoAndStop("hidden"
_root.mcPurple.gotoAndStop("hidden"
_root.mcPink.gotoAndStop("hidden"
_root.mcOrange.gotoAndStop("hidden"
_root.mcRed.gotoAndStop("hidden"
}
stop();


One of the buttons (there are 16)

on (release) {
_parent.turnOff();
_parent.gotoAndStop("1808"
}

Thanks for any suggestions that anyone can give me!

If "1808" is supposed to be a frame label, you should be doing that. No number only frame labels or at least not starting off with a number. Try changing your frame label to "frame1808" or "year1808" and target that new label.
Then change all of them in the same manner.
