Hitboxes inside mc scale smaller than parent

1

i’m creating a simple navigation for a portfolio site. on my main (root stage) i have ONE movie clip. inside this movie clip i have all the elements of my website. i’m doing this so the user can scale and move the navigational elements around. this is accomplished by simply placing actionscript on frame 1 on the main (root stage).

nav._xscale = 60;
nav._yxcale = 60;

eventually i will but a slider on the main stage so the user can scale to whatever size.

MY PROBLEM IS that everything scales fine, however, the hitboxes become extremely small, and don’t scale with the rest of the elements.

onClipEvent (load) {
	this._x = 8;
	this._y = 25;
	speed = 2;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
	if (_root.nav.workInvis.hitTest(_root.nav._xmouse, _root.nav._ymouse, false)) {
		endY = 25;
		_root.nav.cursor._y += (endY-_root.nav.cursor._y)/speed;
	} else if (_root.nav.searchInvis.hitTest(_root.nav._xmouse, _root.nav._ymouse, false)) {
		endY = 80;
		_root.nav.cursor._y += (endY-_root.nav.cursor._y)/speed;
	} else if (_root.nav.contactInvis.hitTest(_root.nav._xmouse, _root.nav._ymouse, false)) {
		endY = 133;
		_root.nav.cursor._y += (endY-_root.nav.cursor._y)/speed;
	}
}
