Re: If statement not working for some reason

use the trace statement to debug.  eg,

trace(a,a is String,a==3);

if(a == 3)

{

  a = 0;

  gotoAndPlay(1,"Scene 4");

}

else

{

  gotoAndPlay(1,"Scene 3");

}

if(clicked2)

{

  gotoAndPlay(1,"Scene 5");

}

else

{

  gotoAndPlay(1,"Scene 3");

}
