Michael,
I've read your posting about five times now, but I still don't have a
clue what you are asking.
But one thing I can suggest is that you recode your frame script to just be:
on exitFrame me
go to the frame
-- or if you prefer the new fancy/schmancy syntax:
--_movie.go(_movie.frame)
end
While it is a nice very general thing to be able to have a single
behavior that can do anything on exitFrame and/or mouseUp based on
what you enter into a GetPropertyDescriptionList dialog, this is very
inefficient in the long run. If you just want to have your movie
stop on a frame, just write a go to the frame script. The "do"
really slows things down, especially if you are just looping on a
frame.
Further, it really doesn't make sense to have an "on mouseUp" handler
within a frame script. I think that's just asking for trouble. In
fact, this might be the cause of whatever "bubbling" you are
experiencing. If a user clicks on something that does not have an
"on mouseUp" handler, I believe that the event is forwarded on to the
frame script, and probably not doing what you want.
Simplify and clear up everything by just having a go to the frame
script on your frame.

Hi list...
I have a frame script that's interrupting the flow of code. I suspect a
bubbling issue. A swf sprite, on mouseUp, calls a parent script. When
debugging, I can see it gets to the parent handler, but this always
occurs on a frame that has a frame script on it.
In that frame script, I have a handler:
on mouseUp(me)
if pHandler = "mouseUp" then
do(pDoWhat)
end if
end
on exitFrame(me)
if pHandler = "exitFrame" then
-- here, pDoWhat = "_movie.go(_movie.frame)"
do(pDoWhat)
end if
end
The mouseUp handler grabs the code out of the parent script and
automatically into the frame script, after one step. I think it's a
combination of a bubbling issue and the on enterFrame handler, so how
can I prevent the code from being diverted from its intended flow?
Thanks,
- Michael M.
