Re: my email has been down, repost...

John & Any other saviour out there-


Okay... I am not able to get the "goto and play" action for the over state

of the button working. I have a cheap work around now by having a "click

me" graphic in trhe over state with a button action of going to and playing

the next frame. I would realy like my users experience to be smoother

though. Simple mouse over- find choice and click.


I am authoring on a Mac w/ Flash 2. I am viewing on both a PC and a mac

both using Netscape. Any ideas?


thanx

chad
