Nested Movie Clip Link Issue

Question

Hi All,
First off, I am a noob to Flash and AS3, but have learned a lot over the last few weeks working on this project (http://www.jtapia.com/vcore/vcore_eng_up.html - go to COMPANY INFORMATION > PROCESS SUMMARIES to see the problem).
My problem is I have a nested movie clip that houses a text URL link to a PDF file in another nested MC. The link works fine OUT of the parent clip but does not work when nested inside the clip. The odd thing is, I have almost the SAME exact thing in the navigation and it all works fine (except it isn't a URL link but I do use an event listener to look for MOUSE_OVER, etc).
The only code refrencing the parent clip is:
1) The fluid layout code (a stage event listener)
2) At different stages in the main timeline, I adjust the nested timeline to various points in the nested clip (i.e. - MovieClip(mc_page_text).gotoAndPlay(2);  )
Everything works great EXCEPT the URL links. The animations, everthing else works - no errors.
I've been reading and searching for help on this for hours and can't find a solution. Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks!
Jake

Hi kglad,
There really isn't any code...the parent clip (main timeline) is on a stop(); frame - the link is via the STATIC TEXT properties box under OPTIONS > LINK. I think that is what's so confusing to me. The only other code is this (as I mentioned in the first post):
the fluid layout code:
function resizeListener (e:Event):void { //fluid layout code
//    trace("stageWidth: " + stage.stageWidth + " stageHeight: " + stage.stageHeight);
    mc_page_text.x = ((stage.stageWidth / 2) - 258);
    mc_page_text.y = ((stage.stageHeight / 2) - 161.5);
    mc_logo.x = ((stage.stageWidth / 2) - 354.05);
    mc_logo.y = ((stage.stageHeight / 2) - 244);   
    mc_contact.x = ((stage.stageWidth / 2) + 132.95);
    mc_contact.y = ((stage.stageHeight / 2) - 239.7);       
    mc_nav.x = ((stage.stageWidth / 2) - 500);
    mc_nav.y = stage.stageHeight - 178;
    mc_footer.x = ((stage.stageWidth / 2) - 500);
    mc_footer.y = stage.stageHeight - 15.05;
    mc_bg.width = stage.stageWidth;
    mc_bg.height = stage.stageHeight;
    mc_fade_out.width = stage.stageWidth;
    mc_fade_out.height = stage.stageHeight;
And these two references to the mc_page_text MC (the parent clip of the actual STATIC TEXT items) from the main timeline:
MovieClip(mc_page_text).gotoAndPlay(2);
MovieClip(mc_page_text).gotoAndPlay("textFADE");
Thanks for the help!
