Hey guys!

First i gotta say i LOVE the site! Its been a great inspiration and help when ive been trying to learn flash. Ive been reading it ■■■■ near daily for the last 2-3 years so dont count me out cause its my first post 😉

Anywho im trying to add thumnails to a gallery of mine. Everything works fine untill i put all the symbols in a movieclip. When i do that the scroller stops working but everything else works fine!

The tutorial im working from is: [http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/thumbnails.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/thumbnails.htm)

And the part of code that is relevant is:
