Should this not work?--

--------------------------------------------------
//This var is declared on main timeline
var _root.cad = "1"

// This code is run inside of a movie clip on the main timeline
if (_root.cad <> "") {
gotoAndStop(_root.cad);
} else {
stop();
}

--------------------------------------------------

I am having a problem with gotoAndStop(_root.cad);

I cannot get flash to jump to the frame number when passing it in. Is there something I have to to make that happen?

Sorry, here is the snippet of code I am having trouble with:

_root.cad = "1"

if (_root.cad <> "") {
"gotoAndStop(cad"+_root.cad+");"
} else {
stop();
}

I am trying to addend frame name dynamically into the gotoAndStop Action. Is this possible?

Howdy...

Try this...
PHP Code:
 _root.cad = "1";

if (_root.cad <> "")
{
    gotoAndStop("cad" + _root.cad);
}
else
{
    stop();
}

I sometimes find it is necessary to use-

_root.gotoAndStop(_root.cad);
