Nested movie clip buttons? event bubbles onEnterFrame workaround question

yes i know about senoculars site and what it has to say about this…

in this case i do not have time to go through that and learn it properly so im looking to figure out an onEnterFrame solution

say you have an mc(mc1) with another mc(mc2) INSIDE mc1. Both have button functions, and because AS2 doesn’t allow both functions to work properly at the same time i need to set it up so that if the mouse is in the area of the stage where mc1 lies it fires a rollout function…

here is what i have(forgive me if it’s choppy, after all thats why i’m here!)…

stop();

rollover = function(){
    gotoAndPlay("over");
}
rollout = function(){
   gotoAndPlay("out");
}


mc1.onEnterFrame = function(){
    if ((_xmouse<mc1._x + mc1._width)&&(_xmouse>mc1._x)&&(_ymouse>mc1._y)&&(_ymouse<mc1._y + mc1._height)){
        rollover();
    }else{
        stop();
    }
}

mc1.onEnterFrame = function(){
    if ((_xmouse<mc1._x)&&(_xmouse>mc1._x + mc1._width)&&(_ymouse<mc1._y)&&(_ymouse>mc1._y + mc1._height)){
        rollout();
    }else{
        stop();
    }
}
