Im trying to make a button in my tiled game like the one in

http://www.raywenderlich.com/1163/how-to-make-a-tile-based-game-with-cocos2d

like a button in the middle of the level just to do something like say hello so i dont want it in the HUD i want it in the level, so i made the button
```
noButton = [CCMenuItemImage itemFromNormalImage:@"NoButton.png" selectedImage:@"NoButton.png" target:self selector:@selector(doTheAction)];
        noButton.position = ccp(xNoButton, yNoButton);
        noButton.scale = .5;
        [self addChild:noButton z:3];
```
Then i have the @selector
```
-(void)doTheAction {

NSLog("You pressed NOBUTTON");

}
```
but when i press the button it does nothing, just moves the player.

Any tips

sorry for the noobishness just came back to cocos2d

You should see a warning when compiling in XCode 4/iOS 5:

Passing argument 1 of 'NSLog' from incompatible pointer type

Or an error in XCode 3/iOS4:

error: cannot convert 'const char*' to 'NSString*' for argument '1' to 'void NSLog(NSString*, ...)'

Try using:

NSLog(@"You pressed NOBUTTON");

ok i have tested and tested still nothing, i tried

yesButton = [CCMenuItemImage itemFromNormalImage:@"YesButton.png" selectedImage:@"YesButton.png" target:self selector:@selector(yesSellCrops)];
        yesButton.position = ccp(xYesButton, yYesButton);
        yesButton.scale = .5;
        [self addChild:yesButton z:3];

        //No Button
        noButton = [CCMenuItemImage itemFromNormalImage:@"NoButton.png" selectedImage:@"NoButton.png" target:self selector:@selector(noSellCrops)];
        noButton.position = ccp(xNoButton, yNoButton);
        noButton.scale = .5;
        [self addChild:noButton z:3];

the buttons then show up, but don't work .

I try

yesButton = [CCMenuItemImage itemFromNormalImage:@"YesButton.png" selectedImage:@"YesButton.png" target:self selector:@selector(yesSellCrops)];
        yesButton.position = ccp(xYesButton, yYesButton);
        yesButton.scale = .5;
        [self addChild:yesButton z:3];

        //No Button
        noButton = [CCMenuItemImage itemFromNormalImage:@"NoButton.png" selectedImage:@"NoButton.png" target:self selector:@selector(noSellCrops)];
        noButton.position = ccp(xNoButton, yNoButton);
        noButton.scale = .5;
        [self addChild:noButton z:3];

    CCMenu *menuTest = [CCMenu menuWithItems:yesButton, noButton, nil];
       [self addChild:menuTest z:3];

I get an error then i realise i add the menu as a child with the buttons so i don't have to do that, so i remove that

yesButton = [CCMenuItemImage itemFromNormalImage:@"YesButton.png" selectedImage:@"YesButton.png" target:self selector:@selector(yesSellCrops)];
        yesButton.position = ccp(xYesButton, yYesButton);
        yesButton.scale = .5;

        //No Button
        noButton = [CCMenuItemImage itemFromNormalImage:@"NoButton.png" selectedImage:@"NoButton.png" target:self selector:@selector(noSellCrops)];
        noButton.position = ccp(xNoButton, yNoButton);
        noButton.scale = .5;

    CCMenu *menuTest = [CCMenu menuWithItems:yesButton, noButton, nil];
       [self addChild:menuTest z:3];
