Flash buttons 1

[Ecaboodle]

OK new to flash, really like learning all that the program has to offer.

Could do with a bit of help! I know this has got to be an easy question to those in the know, so here we go...

Have created a scene with text for buttons, have setup the buttons so when you go to click them, sorry if you hold the down button on the mouse the next bit pops up, but can't get the image to stay there. Plus I need to then make a close button on the bit to close it.

Any ideas, Thanks If you can't fix it in 20 minutes call someone who can.

Over state instead of Down! Regards,

Sorry ok got the over state thing, how do I then keep the item there on the screen? If you can't fix it in 20 minutes call someone who can.

That's another story!

You can't do that editing the button's states!

You'll have to create a movie clip (animation or whatever), and control that movie clip from your button. Regards,

Thanks oldnewbie, think I have mastered the buttons know, having spent the whole weekend working on it.

What is the maxium size file that I should be putting on the internet as a page? Is 540k to big? If you can't fix it in 20 minutes call someone who can.
