thanks for the help. If you say it can never work, then I assume it can never work... I'll do a little rethinking as you suggest and use the oldstyle buttons where needed.

That is why your code wont work. paste this over your current code m1.onRollOver = function ():Void { this.gotoAndStop (20); }; m1.onRollOut = function ():Void { this.gotoAndStop (1); }; m1.m2.onPress = function ():Void { trace("HI") getURL ("http://www.cnn.com";, "_blank"); }; as you will see the trace("HI") will never fire because the m1 button movieClips hit area will expand to the total size of the movieClip. rethink your setup, this will never work despite all the help in the world >have you tried that Byron, and does that work for you?
