Have other buttons disappear when over one

[thecynicality]

Ok say i have 2 buttons on a page, is there an actionscript that will make 1 dissappear when i have the mouse over the other?

You're now saying only 2 buttons... Will it be 5 or more, once I go through making you an example .fla with only 2?

Given that button1 and button2 have the same parent,

button2.onRollOver = function() {
     this._parent.button1._visible = false;
}
button2.onRollOut = function() {
     this._parent.button1._visible = true;
}

for all buttons.....assumes they are on the root but if not change root to the name of the clip they are in

Button.prototype.onRollOver = function(){
	for(var btn in _root){
	if(typeof(_root[btn])=="object" && _root[btn].type== undefined)
//to eliminate textfields 
	_root[btn]._visible = false;
	}
	_root[this._name]._visible = true;
}
Button.prototype.onRollOut = function(){
	for(var btn in _root){
	if(typeof(_root[btn])=="object" && _root[btn].type== undefined)
	_root[btn]._visible = true;
	}
}

only works with user defined buttons and not with the flash push button which is different
