Hey everyone. So I’m down to the very last revision of a site I’m designing, and they want to change the infinite menu to use left and right buttons, rather than where the mouse is to make the thing scroll.

How do I translate this…

onClipEvent (load)  
{  
xcenter=400;  
speed=1/20;  
}  
onClipEvent (enterFrame)  
{  
var distance=\_root.\_xmouse-xcenter;  
\_x+=(distance\*speed);  
if (\_x \> 0) \_x=-800;  
if (\_x \< -800) \_x=0;  
}

…onto a left and right button that make it scroll the appropriate direction?

Could use this asap.

Thanks a ton

Evan
