multiple link options in a button

hello,
What I thought seemed rather simple has become a problem my pea-sized brain cannot find a solution to.

I have created several buttons in flash MX. I would like those buttons to be menu items, each having several different "hot spots" which contain links to individual scenes.

In the hit frame I have tried adding multiple objects/movies/nested buttons/etc and assigning them their own Link/redirect. I have added them on one layer, several layers etc. But when the movie is published only one of the links works regardless of what ares of the main button you click.

So the question is: is it possible for one button to have a variety of different link options.

the example (non functional) page is here the three drop down button I would like to enable are in the upper right (Water Sports, Mt biking, Trekking)

Make sense?

 
Are the buttons created as buttons or as components of a movie clip? That's how I'd do it. Put all the buttons in a movie clip, and then manipulate the mc on the stage instead of the buttons.

Let me know if this doesn't make sense. :)
