RollOver & RollOut too quickly

This has me puzzled:

code:

---

		thumbHolder.onRollOver = function() {

			trace("rollover");

			tempx = this._x;

			tempy = this._y;

			if (thumbAlign == "horizontal"){

				_root.hoverme._x = Number (tempx) + 215;

			}

			if (thumbAlign == "vertical"){

				_root.hoverme._y = Number (tempy) + 21;

			}

			_root.hoverme.gotoAndPlay(2);

		}

		



		thumbHolder.onRollOut = function() {

			trace("rollout");

			_root.hoverme.gotoAndStop(1);

		}

---

Seems straight-forward enough and it does work, but as each thumbHolder is very close in proximity, the onRollover doesn't send _root.hoverme to frame 2 if you move from the cursor from one thumbHolder button to the next, too quickly (though the trace shows that the actual rollOver and rollOut DO activate).

Oddly enough, if I remove the RollOut completely, it works fine (but then I have no way of sending _root.hoverme to frame 1 when no thumbHolder is being 'rolled out', as there is no rollOut then).

Never come across this before ... anyone found a cure for this?

Have you tried putting the rollOut part of the script before the rollOver part?

For anyone in the same situation, try sending your rollOut to a frame that is AFTER the rollOver's current frame, and not BEFORE.

This seems to do the trick for me, and for others.
