Bring to front issues

i used the actionscript from the vibrating circles tutorial in a piece of flash art that i’m making. it works perfectly.

i added another layer on top of the one with the vibrating items on it, and i want it to appear on top of the vibrating items, so it covers some of them up.

even though it’s on it’s own layer, on top, the vibrating items are still appearing above the layer on top of them.

does anybody have any idea why this would happen, or how to circumvent it?

thanks ahead for any comments. :puzzled:
