I have included my flash file for a quick glance.

I am creating a header for a client and I have written a tellTarget movie for when the mouse rolls over the hit area around the three pictures in the header(see attachment), I have the movie play.

Now the problem lies in that if I roll over the hit area and off of it before the movie finishs playing, the rollout action does not occur.

I was wondering if there were any ways around this? I look forward to hearing your responses!

Here is the action script for my telltarget hitarea

on(rollOver) {  
tellTarget("/description") {  
gotoAndPlay(“play”);  
}  
}

on(rollOut) {  
tellTarget("/description") {  
gotoAndPlay(“out1”);  
}  
}
