drop down menu 2

[Flashoid]

Does anyone have a very easy to modify drop down menu. It would just be the kind that when you rollover the static box "Menu", a series of buttons drop down from it, and these buttons are editable and clickable.

thanks!

It is possible to get a working link going for the FLA?

I used the drop down menu for the website i'm doing for a friend but the problem i'm having is having the buttons link to a frame label in another scene but for some reason it is not working. I'm a new in flash. Apparently html websites aren't kool anymore.

Actionscript on button:
on (release) {
gotoAndStop("Home", "networking");
}

I also uploaded the .fla file:

Help me please i'm lost

You can't target scene names from movie clips, and would target labeled frames instead. You also have to add _root to your path for targeting the main timeline.
Thus assuming your frame label in the above is "networking", your script should be...

on (release) {
_root.gotoAndStop("networking");
}
