gotoAndPlay() goestoAndStops()

Flash 5

this is the craziest thing... I have a simple gotoAndPlay that is going to and stopping... this is what I am doing... I have a movie that has a stop(); in frame 1 (may be the problem) at a certain frame in the root I am telling that movie: movieName.gotoAndPlay(2); where it should play until it reaches another stop(); at frame 10... but it goestoAndStops(2);

Any thoughts?

Seems like a simple little thing- not sure why it is doing this....

just a thought but have you made frame 2 a keyframe and made sure there is no stop in the actions.

yeah- I tried that and the same... I've worked around it by putting a play(); in frame 2... still crazy I have done this in the past and have not had to do that....
