Hi, I have a menu system for my site I made roughly following this tutorial:  
[http://www.actionscripts.org/tutorials/intermediate/Easing\_Menu\_System/index.shtml](http://www.actionscripts.org/tutorials/intermediate/Easing_Menu_System/index.shtml)

The problem is, when I specify where the background movie should start (which would be where it moves to when you click home) it moves off to the same place as soon as the movie is loaded…  
goto [www.saxonfinancials.com/index2.html](http://www.saxonfinancials.com/index2.html) to see what I mean…  
When home is clicked, it goes to the right place… And I can see the movie is loading in the right place, but then it promptly moves off to the side, but if you click on home again, it moves straight back and stays there, as it should…

Please, any ideas would be much appreciated!!!

Jay

declare the value of **endX** and **endY** when the movie clip is loaded

```auto
onClipEvent (load) {
	endX = 1600;
	endY = 350;
}

```
