you just go to actions and choose GoTo then choose the frame you want to send it to

A better way is to go to the actions choose the Global Functions > Timeline Control > and choose gotoAndPlay

The code will look like this:
gotoAndPlay(replace this with the frame number);

Put an actionscript on the button.

1. Select the button.

2. Press F9 to open the actionscript panel.

3. Type in:

on(release){
gotoAndPlay(framelabel or number);
}

Okay, there you go. If you have anymore questions feel free to PM me or ask people who really know how to do actionscripts.

There is another alternative way.

1. Name the button.

2. On the current frame type in:

ButtonName.onRelease=function(){
gotoAndPlay(framelabel or number);
}

Hope this helped you.

Really?Play Buttons

Use actionscript 2.0 and then right lcikc on the first frame where the button is then type stop(); and then make your button select the button then type this

on(release){Play();

}

Stop movie clipPlay Buttons

I have several movie clips with buttons to start each clip. I need to stop a movie clip if another button is selected so that one movie does not play over another. I tried using stopAll but this code doesn't work. Do you know the correct code?

one_btn.AddEventListener( MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, function(evt:MouseEvent):void { stopAll( ); gotoAndStop(3); } );

Whats wrong is that you are doing AddEventListener...There is no capital in the A, the code should be:

one_btn.AddEventListener( MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, function(evt:MouseEvent):void { stopAll( ); gotoAndStop(3); } );

So I've tried using all of the codes listed on here, and none have worked. I have my button ready, and I have the

stop();

Code down in my Actions.

I really want to make a start button for ActionScript 3.0, because everywhere I go people have made it for 2.0...

I currently own only Adobe Flash CS4, and I don't like how my images turn out before the preview when I open a 2.0 ActionScript file.

'':U So I was hoping someone could help me on this...
