Hey everyone!

How to repeat the actions of this button?  
[http://www.constructiondurable.com/indexflash.htm](http://www.constructiondurable.com/indexflash.htm)

Notice the tabs on the left hand side. Go ahead and mouse over them.

Any info would be great!  
Thanks!

mc is the movieclip on stage. It’s pretty self explanatory otherwise. you can use the easeTo method to make your own tab movement, or use the wrapper easeInOut I provided. drag in is the drag that will effect the clip on rollover, drag out is the drag that will effect the clip on roll out. xdist and ydist are the \_x and \_y offset for the tab movement. You don’t have to use the y value if you want to duplicate the effect on the page.

```auto

MovieClip.prototype.easeTo = function(drag, distx, disty){
	var xtar = this._x + distx;
	var ytar = this._y + disty;
	this.onEnterFrame = function(){
		this._y+=(ytar - this._y)/drag;
		this._x+=(xtar - this._x)/drag;
	}
	
}

MovieClip.prototype.easeInOut = function(dragin, dragout, xdist, ydist){
	this.onRollOver=function(){
		this.easeTo(dragin, -xdist, ydist);
	}
	this.onRollOut = function(){
		this.easeTo(dragout, xdist, -ydist);
	}
}

mc.easeInOut(8, 4, 20, 0);

```

it’s pretty rough, so you might need to work on it a bit.
