[F8] Animated buttons reset problem

[stefancostain]

Hi,
Im trying to make a website and am having big problems getting the buttons to work how I'd like. Im guessing I need to write some actionscript.

The animated buttons change from red to yellow on the UP state then from yellow to red on OVER and finally white on click.

Ive managed to mask the buttons on website entry so that you dont see the initial red to yellow state you just see four yellow buttons fade in. The thing is that when you click on a button and go to another page all the buttons reset themselves and so you see the red to yellow state for the remaining buttons that havent been clicked.

How do I get it so that when you click a button the others dont reset themselves. Check out the site so far to see what Im talking about. StefanCostain.com
Flash 8 by the way.
Thanks loads to anyone that can help!!!

ok i think i know what you are talking about
so let me try to help

when you go into the button (in flash)
you see the UP OVER DOWN HIT
are the colors that you want assigned to each one of those?

The UP state contains a movie clip which turns from red to yellow. The OVER state the same but from yellow to red. DOWN and HIT just have a white version of the button (no movie clip/change)
