The only thing I would like to recreate is the yellow “people” tab and its functionality (have it pop out and still select the options inside then go back when you roll out). I would like to get this working for several tabs but am having a bit of trouble. I am using the “onMouseMove” which is causing it to move a bit slowly. Can anyone help me find a better way to do this? Here is the link to the example I mentioned and my actionScript so far:

[http://www.ingestorey.com/](http://www.ingestorey.com/)

this.onMouseMove = function() {  
var bound1:Object = strength\_btn.getBounds(this);  
var bound2:Object = cleanliness\_btn.getBounds(this);  
var bound3:Object = productivity\_btn.getBounds(this);  
var bound4:Object = mainenance\_btn.getBounds(this);  
if (this.\_ymouse\>bound1.yMin && this.\_ymouse\<bound1.yMax && this.\_xmouse\<bound1.xMax && this.\_xmouse\>bound1.xMin) {  
var up1:Tween = new Tween(strength\_btn, “\_y”, Strong.easeOut, strength\_btn.\_y, 69, .5, true);

```
} else {
	var down1:Tween = new Tween(strength_btn, "_y", Strong.easeOut, strength_btn._y, 264.1, .5, true);
	
}

```

if (this.\_ymouse\>bound2.yMin && this.\_ymouse\<bound2.yMax && this.\_xmouse\<bound2.xMax && this.\_xmouse\>bound2.xMin) {  
var up2:Tween = new Tween(cleanliness\_btn, “\_y”, Strong.easeOut, cleanliness\_btn.\_y, 69, .5, true);

```
} else {
	var down2:Tween = new Tween(cleanliness_btn, "_y", Strong.easeOut, cleanliness_btn._y, 264.1, .5, true);
	
}

```

};  
}

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
