Okay, before anyone says it I have been searching for about half an hour and trying to find the/any tutorial for this but have come up empty handed.

Basically, what I want is a menu with buttons that, when clicked, scroll the background to a certain point which cotains the content. If you still don’t understand check out [www.hundredreasons.com](http://www.hundredreasons.com/) (click ‘anti-website’ at the top) for an example.

Can anyone tell me, in layman’s terms, how to do this. I’m a total n00b with actionscript so take it slow.

TIA  
Paddy

You mean like this: [Click here](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash5/slidingmenu.htm)?

I think there’s another one over at [ActionScript.org](http://ActionScript.org), I’ll see if I can find it.

Thanks wizard. I wasn’t searching for a sliding menu. This is exactly what I want.

You’re welcome :thumb:… and this is the one that I was talking about ([AS.org](http://AS.org)) [http://www.actionscript.org/tutorials/intermediate/Easing\_Menu\_System/index.shtml](http://www.actionscript.org/tutorials/intermediate/Easing_Menu_System/index.shtml).
