Thanks to everyone who tried helping me with this last week but it’s still not working.
this is what i’m hoping to accomplish entirely in AS:
on button rollover, the button and title of the page fade in
on button rollout, they both fade out
on button release the MC fades in
on new button release, the last MC fades out
so far I have this AS on my button:
[AS]on (rollOver) {
_root.x + 1;
_root.caption.words = “shows”;
_root.fadein(this, 100, 8);
_root.fadein(_root.caption, 100, 20);
}
on (rollOut) {
_root.x = 0;
_root.caption.words = " ";
}
on (release) {
gotoAndStop(“shows”);
}
[/AS]
but neither the button or caption fades in
i also put this in the first frame of my main timeline:
[AS]stop();
fadein = function(alpha, obj, steps) {
this.alpha = alpha;
this.obj = obj;
this.steps = steps; // the lesser steps, the faster the fade
if (this.obj._alpha < 100){
this.obj._alpha += 100/this.steps;
}
}
fadeout = function(alpha, obj, steps) {
this.alpha = alpha;
this.obj = obj;
this.steps = steps; // the lesser steps, the faster the fade
if (this.obj._alpha >= 100){
this.obj._alpha -= 100/this.steps;
}
}
[/AS]
and instead of my mc’s fading in, everything just disappears. Eeek. What am I doing wrong?!

Thanks so much and Happy Valentine’s Day!
