How can I get a button to work when its nested in a MC that has an onEnterFrame with a onPress command targeted to it??

Here’s the code for my “popup” MC located on the main timeline.

popup.onEnterFrame = function(){  
this.onPress = function() {  
this.startDrag(false);  
}  
this.onRelease = function() {  
this.stopDrag();  
}  
}

Within that same MC is a button that tells it to close. However, I run a trace command to it and nothing happens. It seems like the onPress nested in the onEnterFrame is over-riding my button on(press).

How can I work around this?
