ok 5 movie clip buttons (named mc\_but1 through to 5) and 5 movie clips (named mc\_1 through 5),  
when buton 1 is pressed movie clip 1 fades up and the other 4 movie clips fade out,  
when buton 2 is pressed movie clip 2 fades up and the other 4 movie clips fade out etc etc.

this is just the script for button 1

mc\_but1.onPress = function(){

{mc\_1.onEnterFrame = function ()  
{if (mc\_1.\_alpha \< 100)  
{mc\_1.\_alpha += 10;}  
else{delete this.onEnterFrame;

{mc\_2.onEnterFrame = function ()  
{if (mc\_2.\_alpha \> 0)  
{mc\_2.\_alpha -= 10;}  
else{delete this.onEnterFrame;

{mc\_3.onEnterFrame = function ()  
{if (mc\_3.\_alpha \> 0)  
{mc\_3\_alpha -= 10;}  
else{delete this.onEnterFrame;

{mc\_4.onEnterFrame = function ()  
{if (mc\_4.\_alpha \> 0)  
{mc\_4.\_alpha -= 10;}  
else{delete this.onEnterFrame;

{mc\_5.onEnterFrame = function ()  
{if (mc\_5.\_alpha \> 0)  
{mc\_5.\_alpha -= 10;}
