hey guys. In college, im taking multimedia and one of the classes im taking called multimedia concepts. Its actually Adobe Flash programming. If you are relatively familiar with the newest form of Flash code, actionscript 3.0, pleaseeee help me out. This isnt to cheat in anyway, the teacher just says it is a little too advanced for me, although after taking VB, C++, HTML&XHTML, code does not worry me.

gotoAndPlay(239);
function randNum (min:Number, max:Number ):Number
{
min = 1;
max = 6;
var randNumber:Number = Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min + 1)) + min;
return randNumber;
}
var n:int;
n = randNum(1, 6);
trace(n);
if (n == 1)
{
gotoAndPlay(1);
}

else if (n == 2)
{
gotoAndPlay(40);
}

else if (n == 3)
{
gotoAndPlay(80);
}

else if (n == 4)
{
gotoAndPlay(120);
}

else if (n == 5)
{
gotoAndPlay(160);
}

else if (n == 6)
{
gotoAndPlay(200);
}


What im having trouble with is the if-else-if statements. I declare variable n to the random number generator(randNum), then set its value equal to another value in order for the "movie" to start at a certain point on the timeline. The biggest issue im encountering is that the only "if" statement that works is the first! I dont see why non of the other ones are declaring when a random number aside from 1 is calculated.

any help would be MUCHHHH appreciated.
thanks.
