Hi

Can any one help me understand why this code isnt working…

I followed a video tutorial rigouroulsy but i cant get the thumbnails to slide

_panel_ being the instance name of the thumbnails movie clip  
\*stroke \*being the name of the bounding movie clip

panel.onRollOver = panelOver;

function panelOver() {  
this.onEnterFrame = scrollPanel;  
delete this.onRollOver;  
}

var b = stroke.getBounds(thumbs);function scrollPanel() {  
if (\_xmouse\<b.xmin || \_xmouse\>b.xmax || \_ymouse\<b.ymin || \_ymouse\>b.ymax)  
this.onRollOver = panelOver;  
delete this.onEnterFrame;  
}

```
if(panel._x &gt;= 13) {
    panel._x = 13;
}
    
if(panel._x &lt;= -3233) {
    panel._x = -3233;
}

var xdist = _xmouse - 246.6;

panel._x += -xdist / 7;

```

the guy in the video was working in MX and i have flash 8 is that a problem?
