basically this is the code i got from a kirupa tutorial and i just want the graphic to be moved on the x axis
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
getlimits = \_root.normalpic.getBounds(\_root);
//get the limits of the normal pic movie
if (\_root.\_xmouse\>=getlimits.xMin && \_root.\_xmouse\<=getlimits.xMax && \_root.\_ymouse\>=getlimits.yMin && \_root.\_ymouse\<=getlimits.yMax) {
this.\_x = \_root.\_xmouse;
}
}
is this the correct code??

Probably the name of the instance, but the syntax looks a bit strange. Did you check in the AS dictionary?
