Rollover Problems

[LandoLando]

Why is it, please, that when I make a rollover, which takes the viewer to a movie clip (which works), that the user can also see the clip by rolling over the blank area in which it will appear on the page? I just want a small button to activate the rollover, not half the page. Any help would be appreciated.

hi LandoLando,
hmmm, well then i guess your "blank area" is not blank since it triggers the movieclip! check your button hit area. see that it's not bigger that the up area. now, just to make sure, your rollOver() is triggered by a button right? it's something like : on(rollOver){_root.mymovieclip.gotoAndPlay("myanim ationstart"); ) And you have a stop action or a gotoAndStop(1) at the end of your animation? (just to make sure that it doesn't loop)
hope that helps

well there is an easier way to do this just delete everything in hit keyframe or just delete the hit frame then you will be set.

Thanks for the quick reply. I believe I have everything set the way you suggest. However, since I'm too new with Flash, I might be inserting the rollover movieclip differently than you. After converting the small circle to a button, I drag the movie clip into the stage in the OVER state. I'd like to email you this file if you would be kind enough to pull it apart.

Deleting the hitframe did it. Thank you very much.
