Hello everybody,
I am creating a flash website that is pretty much loading everything externally. I have some links that are loaded in by xml and I would like for them to change color when you rollover them.
Ok I will give you the full actionscript and then the few excerpts from that actionscript where I think it should go, but hey I could be wrong it hasn’t worked for me yet. heh.

aaaand…I thin that something either goes here (this controls the sounds of the menu buttons)
rollover = new Sound(this);
rollover.attachSound("click.mp3")
click = new Sound(this);
click.attachSound("click2.mp3");
or here…(this controls the color of the menu buttons)
//Format the gallery buttons
btntxtstyle = new TextFormat()
btntxtstyle.font = "times";
btntxtstyle.size = 18;
btntxtstyle.bold = false;
btntxtstyle.italic = false;
btntxtstyle.color = 0x000000 //hexadecimal RGB color of button text
overColor = new TextFormat();
//create standardColor textFormat
target_mc.txt.border = false;
target_mc.txt.backgroundColor = 0xFFFFFF //hexadecimal RGB color of button
target_mc.txt.autoSize = "right"
//end gallery button formatting
target_mc.txt.background = false;
target_mc.txt.selectable = false;
target_mc.txt.text = xmlNode.childNodes[k].attributes.name
target_mc.txt.setTextFormat(btntxtstyle);
Please help anyone!!
Thanks.
