It doesn't work because of this:
gotoAndStop(frames[j]);};

frames[j] is not a local variable in the button clip. All buttons should go
to frame 12 the way you have it.

You can do like so to make a local var within each button:

var menus = [aboutus, cd, awards, cl, news, contactus];
var frames = [2, 3, 4, 5, 11, 12];
for(var j = 0; j < menus.length; j++) {
 menus[j].myFrame = frames[j];
 menus[j].onRelease = function() {gotoAndStop(this.myFrame);};
}

Actually it didn't even go to frame 12 the way I had it
but I'm glad it's all working fine now.

thank you, Dave.
