Technowand,
It doesn’t work if I put the code the way you have it. I will paste the code below the way I have it and it is working fine. I really need help on the second coding that is listed though. It’s my backbutton that is not working on the gameboard page. It will not let me change the touched to match. You will see that is different.

This is the page that has the backbutton that is not working. It’s the same thing I pasted above when we first started talking. I pasted the entire page this time. It’s long because I have coding for sixteen blocks. If you know a way to place the blocks on in shorten code let me know BUT the backbutton is what is not working.
