Thanks, Ian.

It actually just occurred to me that the clip this all happens in is a
single frame with no stop. So I'm retesting with a stop action. Will have
to ask the client to test it since I can't replicate the problem. I'll let
you know if that solves it.

Thanks, Ian. 
It actually just occurred to me that the clip this all happens in is a
single frame with no stop. So I'm retesting with a stop action. Will have
to ask the client to test it since I can't replicate the problem. I'll

it seems to me though
that i've seen this before, but I don't think that we solved the
mystery... 
  
have you tried checking
stop actions and hit states to make sure that everything's in
order? 
  
also, have you tried
pulling that frame out and doing some isolationary testing in a separate
movie? 
  
it may be that the main
timeline has no stop and is causing this bug... 
  
wish i could be of more
help; hopefully someone else on the list will be able to be of more
assistance... 
  
luck to
ya,

<dd>Thanks, Ian, but I don't see how that would apply. This is just a
plain old button with an on(Release) action that sends the movie clip
playhead from frame 1 to 2 or from 2 to 1. There's nothing going on
during rollover. All other actions are carried out by script in the
destination frame.

<dd>computer. I have a pair of simple buttons, only one of which shows at a

<dd>Has anyone encountered this? Do you know what causes it to happen, and how
