Hi Patrick,

MOUSE_OVER and MOUSE_OUT target the specific display objects that are
moused over and out.  The ROLL_OVER and ROLL_OUT target the display
objects parent display objects as well.

Given the following display object (a) with child (b) which has children
(c) and (d) and so forth:  

                      a
                   /      
                  b             
               /     \  
              c       d
               \       \  
                e       f
               /      
              g
    
Say the mouse is currently over (g), but is moving onto (f) without
encountering any of the various parents. The following events will be
dispatched in the following order:

(g) mouseOut
(g) rollOut
(e) rollOut
(c) rollOut
(d) rollOver
(f) rollOver
(f) mouseOver


I hope that helps!
