im having trouble making the buttons within my drop down menu active.

basically, on the main timeline, i have a movieclip, and within it have a button that once u roll over it, will go to another instance in that timeline to display a drop down menu located below it (with buttons). these buttons do not perform any actions to the main timeline regardless where i place the actionscript or how i point to those buttons.

can anyone please help??
