I had a look at this site today and was wondering...

With the flash banner, is that simply nesting mc5 into mc4, into mc3, etc or some clever actionscripting?

I know how to do that with 1 mc... have a button and on rollover/out it will grow/shrink.
But with that I see it's really smooth and also is keeping size with the other mc's.

If I were to do it with 5 mcs with rolover buttons... if I quickly rolled over and out... the mc would jump to starting the rollout keyframes. So the result would appear to be jumpy.

So, again I'm thinking there's some clever actionscript going on here.

I posted and then went to try myself.

Yup, it's jumping as I thought it would.

Any comments?

Yeah, that's actionscript going on in there.

I've kind of solved the jumping problem.

It's an untidy way of doing it though.
There's probably a much easier way to do it.
