Hi, this has been bugging me for ages now, anyone have any ideas on why this will not allow button to be seen, on MouseOver it simply ignores the Actionscript.

```auto

loadThumbnails = function() {
    /* Select project nodes from each section in main * loop */
    //trace("------------------");
    allProjectData = myXML.childNodes*.childNodes;
    
    /* Using project names from main loop, pick all respective images */
    for (p=0; p < allProjectData.length; p++) {
        //trace(allProjectData[p].firstChild.attributes.image);
        newProject = sectorSection.projectHolder.attachMovie('projectTemplate', 'project'+p, p);
        newProject.imageName = allProjectData[p].firstChild.attributes.image;
        newProject.loadMovie('thumbs/'+newProject.imageName);
        
** newProject.onRollOver = function () {
            this._alpha = 50;
        }**

        /* Set spacing for thumbail images dependant on how many projects have been generated */
        if (p < numofcol) {
            newProject._x = (newProject._width + projectOffset) * p;            
        }
        else if (p < (numofcol*2)) {
            newProject._x = ((newProject._width + projectOffset) * p) - ((newProject._width + projectOffset) * numofcol);
            newProject._y = newProject._height + projectOffset;
        }
        else if (p < (numofcol*3)) {
            newProject._x = ((newProject._width + projectOffset) * p) - (((newProject._width + projectOffset) * numofcol) * 2);
            newProject._y = (newProject._height + projectOffset) * 2;
        }
    } /* End of for statement */
} /* End of loadImages() function */

 

```
