Hi,

Basically I have this little game and i need to edit in another page.

Example:

The first page of the space shooter will have stuff like Play Game, Instructions, High Score, Credts and so on. I then obviously need to make those into a button and then that button has to link to a new page. So for example when i click on the Instructions page it then takes me to a whole new page with the instructions screen on it.

This is a stand alone game, not a web game.

I have tried creating a new layer and taking it from there but it doesn't seem to work.

I am extremely new to flash, i suppose i really should look at tutorials, but i have got this far without them i thought i'd ask you guys first. I'm sure i'm missing something really simple!

Cheers.

EDIT

Title is meant to be Broad.....noob lol >.<

I nearly didn't answer because you used 'lol'... but I think you'd be best looking at Window>Scene where you can add more scenes for each part of the movie which can be navigated to from buttons by using something like

Code:
on (release) {
    gotoAndPlay("Name Of Scene", 1);
}
 
I would strongly sugget to restrain from using Stages. having so many different timelines can cause a lot of trouuble.

Use different frames and/or movies instead
 
There's absolutely no reason for multiple stages to cause any problems whatsoever, they're as easy to navigate to and from as if you had just one scene. You should use at least two, one for the preloader which can then be left behind once it's been used and serves no further purpose.
