how to make a dynamic drop down menu? I mean I have a button I press it and it ones the drop down menu in a movieClip. I close the movieClip and I press another button and the drop down menu appears again but with different content. The length of the menu is given by the length of an array, and the content of the menu are colors that have to change every time I press another button.
View 1 RepliesI need a tutorial for a hierarchical drop down menu system that drops down 3 sub levels. Do I make the items in the sub menus individual buttons and then insert them into a movie clip or make every sub menu item a movie clip and insert them into buttons?
View 1 RepliesI have been working on building a XML menu and I have been able to create the top level menu but I am not sure how to add the sub menu items in a drop down. I have a link to a zip file containing my XML and FLA file. I am using CS4.The top level menu items consist of the following and the sub menu options are listed. In this list, Items 1,2 and 3 are top level menu buttons and item 4 is a sub menu button that would drop down from item 3.

ok i am doing a dynamic drop down menu which uses php to read the folders name and put it into an array in flash...i'm using duplicateMovieClip to do it... trying to avoid using xml as i want my client to create actual folders instead of editing the xml file...i've tried doing it as of the attached fla. the behaviours are working what i want it to be but the functionality is wrong... the behaviour is when i rollover the top-level button, it displays the submenu or in this case the sub-level buttons... the problem is when i click any one of the button in the submenu... it doesn't work..

View 3 RepliesI'm having issues with the following menu. I've been adapting a script from eveloper/actionscript/xml_dropdown_menu.htm into actionscript 3. When I get to the last level of the menu it won't link properly. It always takes the last url of the bunch as the url for all links in that branch of the tree.

View 1 RepliesQuestion regarding the tuturial:[URL]
change the width of the dynamic text field that each text nav item from the xml loads into so that the width changes depending on what is in the xml.
So the width of the button would change depending on the ammount of characters entered.
Lets say i hava category and some articles in it (one article - few photos and description). I want to make a thumbnail menu in footer each thumbnail linking to an article.

View 12 RepliesEach time I make a drop down menu I face some problems, For example, when I use tweening to roll out a menu ( via ROLL_OVER/ ROLL_OUT), sometimes the menu gets stuck, or starts flickering after it is rolled out if I move the cursor away, and move back on it.
How could I solve this, should I use a timer to disable the button until the tween finishes (or this would be good for nothing)?

But it's only the last button loaded, that responds to onRollOver/onRollOut If I roll over the other buttons it's the last buttons that reacts all the time. I just can't see what's wrong.
