Hi there  
I have a button symbol with 2 layers. One is for text, the other is for a movie clip. The movie clip loops (it doesn’t have a ()stop at the end). I would like to fade this movie in from 0% alpha to 100% alpha during the “on mouse over” stage of the button.

I was wondering if there is some script that I can use to fade the movie in when the user goes on mouse over…

Thanks
