Hi ,

I have form inside a mc inside a main movie.

I want the form with its mc to make the main movie stop from playing while peaple are filling up the form…

I tried using 2 methods both with no luck…

1st method : I’ve put the rollover action on the whole mc - but then I can’t select the textfiled to actully fill them up…

2nd method:

I’ve put the rollover action on every little bit of the mc ( input textfileds, send button, background) - but then when I move from one textfiled to another it sometimes plays the movie again - althogh I didn’t leave the mc area yet…

here is the code sample:

form2.back.onRollOver = function(){  
stop();  
}

form2.back.onRollOut = function(){  
play();  
}

form2.send\_btn.onRollOver = function() {  
stop();  
}

form2.send\_btn.onRollOut = function() {  
stop();  
}

form2.name\_txt.onSetFocus = function(){  
\_root.stop();  
}

form2.name\_txt.onKillFocus = function(){  
\_root.stop();  
}

form2.name\_txt.onChanged = function(){  
\_root.stop();  
}

form2.tel\_txt.onSetFocus = function(){  
\_root.stop();  
}

form2.tel\_txt.onKillFocus = function(){  
\_root.stop();  
}  
form2.tel\_txt.onChanged = function(){  
\_root.stop();  
}  
form2.email\_txt.onSetFocus = function(){  
\_root.stop();  
}  
form2.email\_txt.onKillFocus = function(){  
\_root.stop();  
}  
form2.email\_txt.onChanged = function(){  
\_root.stop();  
}

any suggestions?

Thanks ahead… :):proud:
