Hey everyone this I think is a quick fix but I’m not sure how to do it.  
I created a quick game for my students and the drag and drop coding i think is messed up somehow. Ok so I drag the movieclip to its target and it drops but it stays in the top left corner of the target. I don’t know if I’m describing this clear enough so I uploaded the site to show you all and get help.

For example the coding under the first target is below. Anyone know why it’s doing this? the last game i made which I literally copied from is fine. Help!!!

zerohalfs\_mc.onPress = function(){  
this.startDrag();  
};  
zerohalfs\_mc.onRelease = zerohalfs\_mc.onReleaseOutside = function(){  
this.stopDrag();  
if ( eval(this.\_droptarget) == firsttarget\_mc ) {  
this.\_x = 12;  
this.\_y = 137;  
status\_mc.gotoAndPlay(“correct”);  
} else {  
this.\_x = 224;  
this.\_y = 255;  
statusWrong\_mc.gotoAndPlay (“wrong”);  
}  
};
