That's because you declared your global on prepare movie, but where you
actually need it is on mouseUp.
To save yourself hassle, always declare globals on top of the script, as
opposed to inside an individual handler. This way the global is declared for
ALL the handlers in the current script.
In this example both the prepareMovie handler and the mouseUp handler will
recognise the handler:
---------------
globlal mName
on prepareMovie
put mName
end
on mouseUp
gotoNetMovie mName
end mouseUp
----------------
PS: that's if your mouseUp really is in a movie script. For a sprite
mouseUp:
globlal mName
on mouseUp me
gotoNetMovie mName
end mouseUp
