Button inside a movie clip

programming flash
1

i’ve put a button inside a movie clip, but when i play the preview the button seems unclickable… why?

thanks

You probably have a mouse event for both button and movieclip.
That will kill the button action.

yes i do… but i need it!!!

this is what i want to do: a movie clip that appears on rollover (on another movieclip) and disappears on rollout, with a button inside of it. i do it in order to make a kind of drop down menu (the button is a link in the drop down)

You can use hitTest to check if the mouse is over the movieclip instead.
