</div>

for (i=1; i\<=parseInt(\_level0.count); i++) {  
mc=createEmptyMovieClip(“puppyholder”+i, i);  
mc.\_x=i\*100;  
mc.\_y=200;  
this.onRollOver=function(){  
this.\_alpha=20;  
}  
loadMovie(“puppy”+i+".jpg", mc);  
}

Can anyone figure out why this makes all the created movieClips have an \_alpha = to 20, instead of just the one I RollOver?

Change “this” to “mc”

Does that change anything?

Ok, try replacing it with…

\_root[puppyholder"+i].onRollOver=function(){  
\_root[puppyholder"+i].\_alpha=20;  
}

Or something along those lines.

Alright… give me a few I will see what I can do.

I can’t work on it for long as I am currently working on something else.

Can you post your .fla?

And any other files needed (if any).

you would need picture files and a text file too. Maybe I’ll catch you when you have more time. Thank you for trying.

You could put that all into a .zip file. That is… if you are on a windows OS and have winZip (or some other zip program).

Ok, I downloaded the file… I didn’t need to log in as you though, I just went to the URL and got it.

So I removed the info so no one else could get it.

I’m trying to create a horizontal slider just like the one on the bottom of this page:

[http://www.dvarchive.com/](http://www.dvarchive.com/)

the only difference being that when the user clicks on an image in the slider it will display that same image larger above the slider.

I will pay you if you finish for me or help me finish…

thanks for your help so far too

One project at a time please (although I don’t know if I will be able to do this one).

You can click the contact link in my profile on the button under my post and send me an e-mail. I will get back to you on that menu thing.

That is almost like my Flash Footer (see signature part of post), so I think I can do that 🙂
