I'm having an issue with a button that exists on a frame in the timeline. I have 5 instances of the same button on this frame. When I first go to this frame, everything is fine. I then go to a different frame. When I give a gotoAndStop() command and return to the original frame with the 5 button instances, 1 of my five buttons is missing. I have no removeChild() commands or anything that would make this button dissappear.

How can I get a button inside a movieclip link to a frame in another movieclip on the scene? I tried this code:

I have about 60 buttons to load jpeg images. Instead of putting the long script to load the images on each individual button, I want to put it on a frame and then only set the variables in the buttons to tell the script which image to load from a XML file - this will allow me to make any changes to the loading transitions easily.Initially I wanted to use:

buttonName.onRelease = function() {

myCombobox.textField.setStyle("textFormat", myStyle);myCombobox.dropdown.setRendererStyle("textFormat", myStyle); where myCombobox is the combobox instance and myStyle is textFormat object. but when i disable the component. i.e, myCombobox.enabled = false; The combobox textField loses its style and resets to its defualt style, though the dropdown style remains( myStyle ).
