Hey Folks,

Just wondering if anyone knows how to make a down state for a button.

Basically, I am making a gallery. There’s my index page, and then I load my gallery pages into an empty movie clip on the index page.

I want the buttons to stay ina down state when the user clicks on them…

Any suggestions?

Please & Thanks!!
