hello!

I have UP and DOWN buttons and i want them to scroll my newsMC when rolledOver.

this is the code in emptyMC on a second frame:

```auto
if (_root.up) { 
_root.newsMC._y += 10;
if(_root.newsMC._y >=22){
 _root.newsMC._y = 22;
}
} else if (_root.down) {
_root.newsMC._y -= 10;
if(_root.newsMC._y <=-35){
 _root.newsMC._y = -35;
}
 }
 updateAfterEvent();
 gotoAndPlay (1);

```

It works!!! but only after i roll over the UP button:crying: then both UP and DOWN work  
If i go over down button first nothing happens

any sugestions??  
thanks:crazy:
