I had a contact form that i finally got to work. Then I added a preloader and moved my movie to frame 3 right behind the preloader. Now I can’t get my input text fields to work. It won’t let me type in them. I tried to move those to another layer and put it above the rest, but no luck.

If I like click a bunch of times on the text field while typing random characters, I can get like 3 or 4 to show up. Very bizarre. Seems like they are behind a layer or something, but they are not.

Any help would be appreciated.
