Use labels instead of scenes in programming
Don't use scenes to jump to by actionscript, there 
is an error in flash.

Instead of using 

	gotoAndPlay("scene1",2)
	
simply define a lable at the given position 
(eg. first frame of scene 1) and jump to it: 

	_root.gotoAndPlay("myLabel");

Can I jump to a label but using a variable. Because it doesn't seem to work.

I tried _root.gotoandPlay (variable) but it doesn't work.

yes, 
one can easily use a variable for the label, 
eg. 

_root.myLabel = "home_part1";
_root.gotoAndPlay(_root.myLabel);


but no, you can't use variables for scenes

_root.myScene = "home";
gotoAndPlay(_root.myScene, 4);

THAT WON'T WORK. 

I recommend never to use the goto
with scenes, there is no need to do it.
