Need help in Flash

[dumpala]

Hi

I am designing a flash website for a friend. In the home page, there are several buttons(Boxes). When clicked on each box, the box expands and the text will appear on it.

However the problem I am facing is that boxes overlap each other when clicked. I just
need each one to come to the front when selected. Let say I clicked on box2 first and then I click on box1, then the box2 should go back to the normal position and only box1 will expand.

I am sure some one must have done some thing similar to this.

Thanks in advance :)

put this on each of your rollovers, it will bring each to the front, and you can keep them all in the same layer

on(rollOver){
this.swapDepths(1000);
}

Hi Oatesj77,

Thanks for the reply. I tried using the code you gave. But with this the actions that I wrote inside the movie clip are not working. Is there a way to do this and also have the action script inside the movie clip work?

Thanks,

Stevens

so placing the code on the rollover is messing up the AS attached to the MC right?
try this then, in your actions layer, put this;
instancename.onRollOver.swapDepths(1000); repeat for other instance names. if that won't work, post your .fla file and i'll take a look,

Hi Oatesj77,

Thank you very much. The script is working fine now.

Thanks again
