I have this code on a instance of a button named myButton, but when I rollover it just expands without the effect. Also, why doesn’t using “this” instead of the instance name work the same?

on (rollOver) {  
mybutton.\_width=100;  
myButton.\_height=100;  
mybutton.\_width=400;  
myButton.\_height=400;  
mybutton.\_width=200;  
myButton.\_height=200;  
}

Thanks.
