Hi, sorry for the newbie question, im trying to make a menu that opens and closes horizontally. I have the first frame of menu where both sides are “closed” (fla attached) when rollover menu mc plays and opens the menu with the buttons inside. but, being the menu a mc with actions, i cannot get the actions of the buttons inside to work. Any tips about what action should i use for get this working?  
thanks in advance.

PD: the fla is 240 kb, so i cant upload, and for some reason when i try to attach the swf says “file not valid”, so, you can check it out at:
