How do I connect content in a movie with an action outside of it?

Question

I have a movie clip of scrolling pictures that moves by way of the user moving a scroll bar. I want to have a row of the same but much smaller pictures underneath the movie that, when one image is clicked, it will make the movie scroll to that image. I'm not sure how to do this since the images are all housed in the XML for the movie. Is this even possible? Do I add the smaller row of images to the movie? If so, how do I do that? Can I get so that the smaller row of images stays in place?

Answer 1

How exactly do I do that? I'm not quite sure how to go about connecting frames when the file I've created is only working in one frame. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong with the script. I added this:
Button_2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, showimage1);
function showimage1(event:MouseEvent):void {
    gotoAndStop("flashmo_127_curtain.jpg");
and got this message:
ArgumentError: Error #2109: Frame label flashmo_127_curtain.jpg not found in scene flashmo thumbnail.
at flash.display::MovieClip/gotoAndStop()
at Timeline_fla::MainTimeline/showimage1()
Can you clarify exactly how to do this? I'm not the biggest flash expert and not quite to the point where guessing results in positive results. Would I put this script with the xml file where all of the images are housed? Or just added to the end?
