One other thing you could do, but it may increase memory usage (test
to make sure),
is make a large invisible button that is the with and height of your
viewing area
and attach to the onRollOut, the stopDrag();

Hi Karl,
Many thanks for your response. Your help is very much appreciated.
I have tried something to that effect, but with the same result,
the event fires but stopDrag() has no effect.
A sample of what I have tried to do is on:
http://pastebin.com/d3999b3d2
lines 67-72
For the mouse_leave event, lines 80-89.
I haven't tried this on Windows or Linux yet, but it is happening
on FF3 running on Mac OS 10.5
Many thanks,
Joseph

I have not had a chance to look at it just yet, but wanted to ask.
Have you implemented something to the effect of following the
mouse._x and mouse._y or the MC's ._x and ._y and set up a
boundary that will automatically
release the MC if the mouse moves out of the boundary range?

Hello everyone,
On Firefox 3 for the Mac, if the user triggers a mouse down when
over a draggable movie clip, but then releases the mouse outside
the stage, for some reason the stopDrag() method of the movie
clip is having no effect, you can see this on:
http://www.mavedu.com/viewer
Part of the [very messy and really horrible] code can be seen on:
http://pastebin.com/d44253a2d
I'm not exactly sure why the stopDrag method has no effect in
lines 60 and 67.
where mc is the movie clip concerned. If you move your mouse
back in, the movie clip is still draggable. I'm not sure what's
going on?
I tried the solution suggested here:

mac-trick
to no avail.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Joseph
