I am building a site for some people that want a menu of links to pop out at the side of 3 main buttons. I thought I figured it out by using a tutorial in a book but it is definitely not working. The navigation shows when it shouldn’t and loops. Here is the link to my page:

the swf:  
[http://www.gobrowncow.com/hannah/engulf/engulf.swf](http://www.gobrowncow.com/hannah/engulf/engulf.swf)

the code the book told me to use for each movie which contains the nav menu  
:  
stop();  
function buttonClick(event:MouseEvent):void  
{  
gotoAndStop(event.target.name);

```
project.enabled = true;
gear.enabled = true;

event.target.enabled = false;

```

}  
project.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClick);  
gear.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClick);

error message: function buttonClick(event:MouseEvent):void

Please help me out, I don’t know that much about flash but this is one feature my client insists upon and it would be good to know how to do it. Thanks!
