[COLOR=black]Hello All,[/COLOR]
[COLOR=black] [/COLOR]
[COLOR=black]I’m fairly new to Flash 8 (Pro) and have used only very basic actionscript.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=black]I have made a navigation menu bar with fly-out sub-menus and have everything working correctly. Now I want to put an animated gradient background movie clip behind the menu and set it up so that when the cursor is over/within the boundary of the gradient clip it will trigger it to gotoandplay x frame, and when the cursor leaves the area, trigger another gotoandplay event.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=black]It seems I can’t set it up with onrollover and onrollout actionscript because of the menu that sits above it, so it seems I need some way or work around to know when the cursor enters and leaves an area or set of coordinates (or in this case is above a certain y coordinate) and trigger.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=black]I found this site [/COLOR]

which I thought might have the answer but I’m not advanced enough to follow it.
Any advice or direction will be much appreciated.
