hey, i just created some buttons for my site. the problem is, is that you can click on the buttons from anywhere, meaning even if you arnt over the button, there is still the small hand. this posses a problem because my buttons are right next to each other and when you put the mouse over the button you want, it does the animation and click to the wrong one. i think its something to do with alignment and mouse over, but im not sure please help ---

they are regular buttons that link to an external swf. i cant attach a file cause its too large, so ill do my best to explain. i created buttons to link to my other pages. however, when i mouse over one, the other button gets moused over instead and you cnat click on the button you want becuase the alignment is off. i dont have actionscript, only to link to my external swf… no im not using mcs, just buttons im sure of that. its wierd because if i try putting them spread apart they work fine, but are not overlapping in the tween for the button btw, how do you make a button play a song, i know how to stop the music but not play it. ---

Yeah like he said - make a clip/swf where the song will live until your button code tells that clip/swf to play/load
