Thanks for the information. I think that may be part of my problem. I tried out the code on that site and Flash does not like the following circle.contains(event.target)
If I take that out the code runs, but of course doesn't work. Does anyone know where I can find a good example on how to do a drag and drop in as3? I never had issues with this in 2. Thanks!
