Add the code in the on(rollOver) event handler i guess.

Use a movieclip instance for the vibrating code!  
for the buttons:

```auto

on(rollOver) {
_root.what = _name;
_root.cx = _x
_root.cy = _y
_root.vibrate = true;
}
on(rollOut) {
_root.vibrate = false;
}

```

Put that code on every button! And then assign a unique instance name for every button!  
And for the vibrating part: (put this on some kind of movieclip instance)

```auto

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if(_root.vibrate) {
	_root.yourmovie[_root.what]._x = _root.cx+(1+Math.random()*5);
	_root.yourmovie[_root.what]._y = _root.cy+(1+Math.random()*5);
}
}

```

Change “\_root.yourmovie” to the instance name of the location movieclip where the buttons are in… and vóila!
