I started working on a little page of mine, and I already ran into some trouble hehe. I’m kind of learning as I go along. Heres the script I’m having some trouble with:

```
ActionScript Code:
[FONT=Courier New][LEFT][COLOR=#0000FF]this[/COLOR].[COLOR=#000080]qmbacking[/COLOR].[COLOR=#0000FF]onRollOver[/COLOR] = [COLOR=#000000] **function** [/COLOR][COLOR=#000000]([/COLOR][COLOR=#000000])[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]{[/COLOR]

```

The problem is is that when I rollover the menu buttons, it will cause the qmbacking to run the script under rollOut. Heres the swf:

Is there any way to “override” this? Or does anyone know of an alternative way of making this type of menu? Only thing I can think of is making an invisible button on the rest of the stage but that will cause a lot of other trouble :/.

Thanks!
