Hi,

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {  
\_root.rings.\_rotation += 5;  
}

Thats the script I learnt recently. I am trying to make a rotating menu. The buttons rotate inside the movie clip named rings. I just want to have control over the rotation, such that when the user rollsover the buttons present in the movieClip “rings”, the movieclip stops rotating. I couldnt figure out how… can someone please guide.
