Hey Mark:
I had a textfield on a top layer, by default if not specified - a
text field is 100 pixels tall.
This was stopping the events from beneath from triggering, but
shouldn't a textfield with no
text in it, be invisibile? That's my question? Thanks for the check
out.
I have a slight memory issue on that app. memory sems to slowly add
up with effect transtions.
Oh, I started a new flex community - it's called flexcoders.me.com
Cheers
Patrick

Hey Patrick,
Nice site...
I found the ok button did not always work, funnily enough when I
clicked left of the words ok...
I have flash version 9.0.28 in my IE.
Have you be able to recreate the error when debugging?
I don't know off hand how to get the debugging going in I.E. flex
builder always loads up Firefox for me.
Basically, I was thinking that if you put trace () commands in your
button event handler or even try and debug it might help you find what
the issue is.
If you wanted to post the code I would be happy to give it a quick
look over... I am not expert by far...
