[COLOR=black][FONT=Arial]Hey,[/FONT][/COLOR]  
[COLOR=black][FONT=Arial] [/FONT][/COLOR]  
[COLOR=black][FONT=Arial]I’m putting together a project based on data security and decided to use flash but I am having trouble with a drop down menu. I know the forum is full of these kinds of posts but I don’t know what I am doing wrong, maybe my layers are in the wrong order or I’ve missed some script but the syntax is correct.[/FONT][/COLOR]  
[COLOR=black][FONT=Arial] [/FONT][/COLOR]  
[COLOR=black][FONT=Arial]Basically all I want is the drop down menu to work for now and ill sort the rest later. I used to do it differently and it would work but then I could not get a button working inside a button and feel this is the best way to get the submenu buttons working (I am going off on a tangent I know) [/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=black][FONT=Arial]Its not very easy to describe what is wrong since I don’t know what is wrong so if anyone here would be kind enough to look at a tiny .fla file I uploaded to:[/FONT][/COLOR]
