Drop Down Menu Issue...

I wanted to create a drop down menu, I figured the first part (I guess). What I did was, I created a button for this purpose and in the "over state" of the same button, I did a movie clip for the drop down menu. It worked fine when the cursor went over the button, but as soon as I went down to select something from the menu, everything just disappeared. How can I make the same drop down menu appear all the way..
I guess I'm doing something wrong...
I appreciate any help guys.
Thanx

Did you remember to put at "stop" inside the MC that you used in the over state of the button?

Here is a tutorial that might be of some help...

buttons vs mc s

try putting the button in a movieclip rather than the movie clip in a button.

have a stop action on frame 1 of the mc
have an action on the mc that says on mouse over, go to and play frame 2.where your dropdown anim begins.
have a stop action on the frame where you drop down animation stops.

menu items

make sure to track the buttons as menu items and not as buttons, this is in the button properties dialog box.
