Button/hitTest/RollOverFX

Hey all.

And thank you for this great forum and all the tuts.

I’m working on a personal site, and I’m having a little trouble. I made a button; basically a square, turned it into a movieclip, went inside the clip and animated it. RollOver/RollOut, etc.

In the main timeline (on an actions layer) I want to add extra button functionality to the button, making it open an external swf in a loader that’s on the stage. This is no problem, it works; but the rollover fx doesn’t play. I’ve been trying to find a solution here and on the net, and people talk about hitTest. But I don’t want the content to load, unless the user clicks(!) on it. Is there a way I can have the best of two worlds? :huh:

Btw, adding the link code:

this.bio_btn.onRelease = function() {
myLoader.contentPath = “bio.swf”;
}

within the movieclip (it has an actions layer of its own.) doesn’t work either. And the rewrite for putting on the button itself doesn’t work either. Oh, and making a hotspot on a different layer, doesn’t work either.

Hope someone can help??
