I made an interactive map using the [hover captions tutorial](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/hover_captions.htm). But my problem is the caption boxes on the edge of the map exceed the stage so you cant see them.

How do you keep this from happening?

also i ommited the line  
_cap.\_width = 30_cap.desc.text.length;\*  
because i wanted all the boxes to stay the same size.  
I just dont want them to exceed the stage bounds.
