Hi everyone.  Please visit this link:

This thing launches next week.  The buttons act unpredictably.
 
When i roll over many of them, i see the finger cursor.  When i release
the mouse button, the cursor turns to the arrow.  From that point on,
releasing the mouse button will fail to fire the onRelease action.
 
i have to move the mouse slightly to see the finger cursor and to fire
another onRelease action.
 
So if you don't move your mouse, you can click and click and click on a
button and it won't do anything.  It's VERY frustrating, and i've never
had this problem with any other Flash project.
 
Here's how to see one of the worst buttons in action:
- click on the Actors folder
- click Hire an Actor
- click Hire this Actor
- drag the actor to the timeline
- move the playhead over your actor clip
- click on the preview window to go into close-up mode
- click on the actor
- click on the little camera button at the right edge of the screen
 
That's one of the most badly behaved buttons in the entire app, but
they're all generally naughty.
 
All of my buttons are movieclips with their actions thrown at them from
the main timeline, like so:
 
var theBtn:MovieClip = whatever.whatever.whatever.theButtonMovieClip
 
theBtn.onRelease = function():Void
{
    // do stuff
}
 
 
What the heck am i doing wrong??   i REALLY appreciate any advice you
can offer.
