ok - I have searched and searched, done the tutorial, etc. now I just need and answer!!! I have a main navigation menu with a drop down sub-menu on a couple buttons. it works fine but the sub-menu does not disappear when I move the curser to a different section of the main navigation menu or website. The code I have for the main navigation menu buttons that drop down a sub-menu is …

on (press) {  
\_root.contents.loadMovie(“dropdown.swf”);  
}

I tried putting below that the following code so that the sub-menu will disappear and it does but it disappears also when moving the curser over to the sub-menu…

on (rollout) {  
\_root.contents.unloadMovie(“dropdown.swf”);  
}

HELP please!!! Am I doing this completely wrong???
