I found this script which shows the mouse event propagation in a movie:

It has really helped me determine when I think events are going astray.

I realized you must be right. So I pulled out the pertinent code and have built a test case. Sure enough, it's working properly. Now I'll figure out
what was breaking it.


The problem appears to be that when I mouse over a nav widget it activates a fn called onMouseOver. When I comment out that addEventListener, then the fn
onPressHandler for the onClick works as desired. So the onMouseOver is
running interference. How do I eliminate the interference? Obviously I need to add something to the onMouseOver fn, but what? Right now all I do is re-call the nav fn to change the color of the btn. I tried this with no
luck:

e.currentTarget.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onPressHandler);
e.currentTarget.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, onMouseOver);

TIA,
Susan
