Hi,

I have designed a menubar in flash, with 7 buttons.  
when i click on the fist button, i pass a variable called MID (menu ID) to the url \> index.php?MID=1, for each button its in incremental fashion.

this way i get the MID for the URL and pass it to flash.

What iam trying to get is that the button i have clicked should be of differrent color when ever flash gets the MID.

I am not able to get this.

Please find the attached file.
