I followed the HoverCaptions tut - [http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/hover\_captions.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/hover_captions.htm) - and everything works fine, unless the user clicks on a movieClip and then drags off the clip. The caption stays attached to the mouse. I tried removing the caption on the onRelease of the button, but no luck…any ideas??

Thanks!!
