How can content reverse and disappear when another button is clicked?

programming flash

I am new to action script, please help! I have three buttons and when you click on them, new content appears. However, I’d like to make it so that when you click on a button, the content on the screen will reverse itself, disappear, and the new content for that button would appear. I don’t know how to do this with action script? What kind of action script could I use?

I’ve posted my problem online at http://katem95790.tripod.com/bars3.htm

I’ll attach the .fla file to this posting so that you can see what I have so far!!

I really appreciate your help!!

Thanks for responding so quickly! The .fla was great help! With this .fla, how can I make it so that when you press the same button twice that the action does not reload again? On your site, when you press a menu button, it doesn’t reload again… how did you do that? Thanks for your help!!

I’m not a script genius so my method is really basic. I’m sure that the other flash gurus will step in and show you a more elaborate way, but I’ll show you mine.

I made a really simple FLA with 2 buttons that disables after being clicked. The important thing is to study the actions that I used. I hope it helps. =)

Your advice was excellent again!! I have another question that I will post in another thread since it deals with a different problem. Perhaps you could answer it as well? (BTW: Your site is very nice!!)
