[RESOLVED] [F8] onrelease function problems

[aamo]

i Have a slider to control volume and it works almost perfectly except that if i mouse out of the slider MC and then release my mouse button flash doesn't seem to recognize this and i can still affect the slider by moving my mouse around even though i am no longer holding the mouse button.

the code that i have is on the first frame of my swf and is basically

tool.button.slider.volslide.onRelease = stopslider;
//stopslider function
function stopslider() {
	tool.button.slider.volslide.stopDrag();
}

This code works as long as i don't mouse out of volslide before i release my mouse button but if i do then i get problems. Any solutions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

why don't u use .onReleaseOutside to do the same thing?
double security.

Thanks a lot, that totally worked. Is .onReleaseOutside new to flash 8? I've never seen that before.
