I am creating my first flash site and am having a problem I know should be simple to solve. I have a drop menu that appears when you click on the main menu. I’m using \_visible to make it only appear when the top menu is clicked on, but I don’t know what script to use to make it dissappear after you click on something else.

Here is the script I am using for what currently works:

gaming\_mc.onRelease = function() {  
gamingDown\_mc.gotoAndPlay(“click”);  
gamingDown\_mc.\_visible = true;  
};

any opinions or ideas would be wonderful. If there is a better way to do this instead of the \_visible option I’m all ears. Thanks!!
