Hi all,  
Another quick one, I think simple though.  
I have a mc that scrolls left or right depending on the \_x position of the mouse. What I need is to limit where the mc can scroll to i.e. so it doesn’t just keep scrolling off the screen.

Code:

stop();  
\_root.onEnterFrame = function() {  
\_root.cad\_menu\_1.cad\_menu.\_x = \_root.cad\_menu\_1.cad\_menu.\_x+(.5\*Stage.width-\_xmouse)/70;  
};

As always help is much appreciated, cheers
