well, to clear something here
Flash won't execute your script if the instance of your movieClip isn't present where u call it
i.e: MC in Frame 5
and frame 1 has a script to call it to be bouble size
as it fires in frame one, it won't find it, so won't be done

[eggnogg]

i admit that i still got alot reading to do!!! :rolleyes:

the situation here is that a mc clip executes its code when invisible bcause i only have frame one!

could u just take a look at the code in my work for a moment please? :D

too haed to go through all that code without knowing what I'm looking for

[eggnogg]

ok

hide the page3MC layer
open page2 MC, then form MC, then there's an empty MC. in this empty MC there's the code that makes the comboxes automatic (publish and check it out).

then go to the main timeline, hide page2Mc layer and "unhide" Page3MC
edit the page3MC and on frame 1 there's the code that is supposed to get the label from the comboBoxes in page2MC.
the variables assigned to this, are the text boxes on the stage..

the prob is that the _root.page2.form.combo1.getSelectedItem().label); statement dosent behave properly. it always retrives the value of the first (empty) item in the comboBox (1) instead of the item we choose...


in page3MC

- > this is the correct statement ->
processador = (_root.page2.form.combo1.getSelectedItem
().label);

not -> motherboard = (_parent.page2.form.motherboard.getSelectedItem(). label);
