keypress with a letter problem...

[Quebecboy]

I've got a problem with Flash 8 and AS 2.0

All I want to do is to make Flash going to a certain frame (ex: gotoAndPlay(4412) ;) by pressing the letter ''c''

but I guess it's not as simple as that:

on (keyPress "<c>"){
gotoAndPlay(4412);
}

So anyone can help me? I just started to learn AS

Try

onClipEvent(enterFrame){
if(Key.isDown(Key.67)){
_root.gotoAndPlay(4412);
}}

The keycodes can be found here

Does it work with Key.67?
I thought it was just "if (Key.isDown(67))" but I guess it works that way too.

It said that there is no clip attached to the event...

does it mean I need to put this code into a clip?a button?

Now it say that there is a '')'' that is missing...

I really doubt that this is what the code is really missing :/...

Any help plz?

Yes your right didn't even bother to check the syntax in flash my bad

so the code should be

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
	if (Key.isDown(67)) {
		_root.gotoAndPlay(4412);
	}
}

Yes you need to put the code on a movie clip symbol
