i made a mailer form in flash, it has the message space a name with clear and send button- with a scroll bar, everything is working fine until if the scroll bar begins to activate and i pressed the button clear scroll bars postion will remain in the position where it was (e.g. in the middle)instead of going back to its default position
i dunno what command i will put on my clear button to make my scroll bar go back to its default place
here’s the file

uhm, i do not have flash in front of me, but i think i use that code.
```php
on (click) {
variable1= "";
variable2 = "";
variable3 = "";
}{
```
when i reset the fields, the scrollbar scrolls up but the bar is still the same size like before reseting.
any ideas?

hmm… interesting to be sure. I’ll have to play around a little before I might get the hang of why it does that. I do remember running into that problem before. Hopefuly I managed to come up with a solution. It might be another variable that needs to be set somewhere.
