Menu slider tutorial help

I have problem that I need a little help with. I’m trying to modify the following tutorial for a project. http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/menu_with_slider.htm
I have changed it so that each button will movie a movie clip vertically from behind a masked area and it works but I have two small problems.
I want the movie clips (which I’m using as submenus) to move back on rollout, but when I add the script on (rollout) name.yMove = 300, my buttons on the movie clip don’t work. When I take the on (rollout) script out, my buttons work on the movieclip but the submenus stay put.
There is probably an easier way to do this but this is only tutorial close to what I was trying to do.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
thnx
