Okay so this question might not excatly pertain to actionscript, however I figured this would be the best forum to post in. Ok so on to my problem, I built a interactive presentation, on scene one there is 3 movie clips and also some background colors that set the backdrop. So I did some drop down menus and they work great for all of my inividual MC’s. However where I run into probs is when I try to put a action script on the fly out sub menus, I tell it where i want it to go and all that and it does what I tell it to when I click on the button, however for some reason some things still show up in that new page I built, all of the buttons and MC’s are still running but u can see them but when u run the cursor around the page it picks up on the buttons and turns to the hand even tho there is nothing showing it’s almost like it’s still on a layer under the page. Non of those buttons should show up or work becuase this is suppose to be a new page with nothing on it! I am still learning how to organize my MC and how to make everything run smoothy. so in all in all I have 3 MC that basically do the same thing when u roll over them some sub menus fly out and I want to have those sub menus go to other pages, where should I put these pages and how should I do it?

Thanks ahead of time!

wow. long post. \***welcome to the forums =)**

post your fla - it’s probably as you said something you forgot to delete or actionscript hidden in an MC you can’t find anymore –

as I said, I don’t think we’ll be of much help if you don’t post the fla =)

cheers, mlk
