Mouse Out Problem

[Missmetz]

Hi,

using the code below to make my flash menu disappear when the cursor leaves the menu in an HTML page- What's happening is, when the cursor is over the meny button, the button is looping from UP to OVER , or the button state is competing with this code... making it seem like its looping...The menu does disappear, so that works. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

thanks -- C.

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse) == 0) {
closethismenu;
}
}

Is closethismenu a function u made, seems so to me,. Anyway try this:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (!hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse)) {
close this menu}
}

Hi, That code came from someone in this forum, I tried yours, and it's still doing the same thing. The menu buttons are 1 color in up state and another color in over state, when movie played, menu buttons looping from up to over. Weird- when I change the action of the navigate button to say "stop" at this frame... menu works right but won't disappear on mouse out. I'll mail the .fla to you if you have the time. Thank You for your help!!!

can you zip it up and attach the file here if it's not too huge?

Well seems that u should add nextFrame() action to the button In its MC
any way I don't mind mailing the fla, but try posting it here in *.zip fotmay for the most benfits (more guys will b able to give lott openions)

also do you have another bit of code defining "closethismenu" in your .fla? (function) maybe post that too? though it sounds like it's a frame thing

You guys are awsome... here it is zipped up. The "closethismenu" code is under the navigate MC on the main time line, and I have the "hit" button in the MC, but there is no code under it. Thank You!

after a brief glance, I can't see a function anywhere for closethismenu? will try to get back to you in a bit though, just got given some work work to do :0(

The code is in layer 1, which is the MC "Navigate Site" - C.

that's the onclipevent code though isn't it? Like Farafiro said, in that snippet you seem to call a function called closethismenu, it's that second bit of code info I'm looking for. ??
