I posted something about this a little while ago, but my solution was lame, and so i'd like to redo it.

SWF = 700w x 75h ..its a banner for sponsors

the idea is to make a system where the sponsor logos scroll automatically, and then when a mouse goes over the SWF, it changes to different MovieClip with a special nav feature that i designed. all clips have been creating properly and they all work great. THE PROBLEM is that there are several buttons in the latter Movie Clip (the one that is activated when the mouse goes over the SWF). If I test for on(RollOver) to switch between the scrolling mClip and the latter Nav mClip, then when a mouse goes over a button the Nav mClip, it jumps back to the scroller because it thinks that the user rolled out of the main triggering button.

someone mentioned something about using hittest... but i'm not sure that ideal..it seems kinda sloppy to me.

any comments or advice is welcome.

thanks!
 
I repeat my sloppy comment...

There's a changing color movie clip (represents your scrolling clip), when a rollOver occurs a new clip appears (your nav clip) with buttons. Can the buttons be accessed without the scroller clip re-appearing? Isn't that what you're looking for?

Yes, I guess.

So would you mind providing the FLA of explaining how you do it?
