I have very little understanding about AS, but i am trying to learn. I have 2 issues one is that i have buttons inside a MC and i am not able to interact with them because the MC is a rollover so the whole window that opens acts like a button and i can not access the buttons. ( i think it has something to do with parent child, but i do not know how to resolve it) My second issue is along the same lines except the problem is i have a text scroll bar i can not interact with.

I read something about hittest and i tried it but it had my btn acting weird and i am not clear why, here is that code:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {  
if (this.hitTest(\_root.\_xmouse, \_root.\_ymouse, true)) {  
\_root.Anim\_Oct.gotoAndPlay(“bar in”);  
}  
}

Thanks for any and all help…
