Question

drop down menu fix

Can anyone reccomend any Action Script tutorials to help activate the menu and sub menu found here:

http://hearightnow.com/yogamater/menu.swf

currently the drop down menu is part of the "over" frame of the button.

this flash project will function only as a menu for an HTML site (probably using HTML frames).

I am brand new to action script but have experience with basic key frame animation. Any guidance greatly appreciated.

thanks!

Hi,

The rollover effect on the site was nice. but since you put it on the button roll over frame it will never be accessible if the mouse is rolled out and that should not happen as you have multiple sub menus in the same menu.

It can be implemented using MovieClips which will be useful to you.

yes, that is the issue. Currently the project does use a movie clip for the sub menu that is placed in the "over" frame of the button. Should it be somewhere else?

It shouldn't be inside the button as you can not access buttons within buttons.

To solve this you can create a Movieclip with the same animation and place it in the same container where your main menu button is.

then add an event listener to the button for Mouse over and mouse out events and play the animation accordingly.

this will solve your problem.
