ok i know that this is probably a very noob question, but im just learning AS so bear with me.  
if i wanted to disable something like a movie clip from being clickbale (i have already linked it to a function)  
if i want to diable the movie clip form being clicked unless something else has been pushed how would i do this and where would i put it?  
also if its not too much trouble could you explain the code a little bit

Put this into your main timeline  
[AS]

mymovieclip.\_visible = false  
mymovieclip2.onRelease = function() {  
mymovieclip.\_visible = !mymovieclip.\_visible

}  
[/AS]

mymovieclip.\_visible = false  
this makes mymovieclip invisible

* * *

mymovieclip2.onRelease = function() {  
mymovieclip.\_visible = !mymovieclip.\_visible

}

this makes mymovieclip the opposite of what it currently is. If you just want it to turn on once then replace:  
mymovieclip.\_visible = !mymovieclip.\_visible

to

mymovieclip.\_visible = false

hopes that good enough explaination and what you wanted

or you could use the **enabled** property instead of the **\_visible** property. 😉

Actually you SHOULD use enabled 🙂
