I am following the drop down menu tut by Syko …

[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/dropdownmenu.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/dropdownmenu.htm)

but instead of the invisible button being “onrollover” i changed the code to  
[AS]  
on (rollOut) {  
gotoAndStop(“Closed”);  
}  
[/AS]  
and created a smaller box, just around the menu text.

My question is, why does the menu go to the “closed” frame over the word Menu, where as if i rollout over the menu items it does not.

I have attached my working FLA. I am trying to learn how to make a horizontal dropdown menu. If someone can point me to some other tutorials that would be great too.

Thank You. Maybe I didn’t attach the fla…still new to kirupa
