Hi there.

I found a site a while back (I have NO idea what site it was) that used small animated movie clips as menu options. You could grab and drag a given menu option into a main player area, and it would begin the animation.

I’m working on implementing something similar into my application, and have got draggable movie clips working.

My problem is that I don’t know how to make it so when the option is dropped into the player region, it plays the movie.

Any thoughts/tutorials/suggestions?

Thanks!
