Hello. Currently I have a rotating globe with 2 buttons. when i click on “right” button, it will go to next frame. when i click on “left button”, it will go to prev frame. I have no problem making it rotating fully.

But now I’m trying to make the globe rotate itself when I mouse over the button. And globe will stop when I mouse out.

I’ve tried using a Boolean var and a while loop but I cant do it.

this is the current codes that i have.

stop();  
import flash.events.MouseEvent;

var mouseover:Boolean = false;

btnRight.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE\_OVER, onMouseOver\_next)  
btnRight.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE\_OUT, onMouseOut\_next)

function onMouseOver\_next(evt:MouseEvent):void  
{  
mouseover = false;  
while (mouseover == true){  
nextFrame();  
}  
}

function onMouseOut\_next(evt:MouseEvent):void  
{  
mouseover = false;  
stop();  
}

Am i doing it the right way? Or how do i go about doing this?
