CS5 AS 3.0
Hey guys. I’ve only been using AS 3.0 for about 3 months and using it to build a portfolio site. No classes here, Im not there yet so please bear with.
Here is my problem: When I click on my MC(portMC) it runs a tween and calls a few tween functions to open its child MC, portMain. Inside portMain there is a close button.(MC acting as button). When I click it, all closes fine and returns to the site. But if I click mcPort to re enter that same section of the site (mcPort) my tween functions play but portMain never reopens. ??? after the first visit to portMain I cannot reenter it. ideas? Code below with comments. Sorry I know its huge just didnt want to leave anything out!
