Hi Eric,

Where do you have the mouseEnter executing? Is it in the LDM if so then that is a 
problem. Unfortunately both mouseEnter and Leave don't respect LDM scope. 
They target the stage with their events instead of keeping within the LDM. This is 
a known issue that will hopefully get fixed some day. It would make life a lot 
easier. In the mean time you will have to flag the enter or leave in the behaviour 
and then during an enterframe test for the flag and execute your code there.

Also another tidbit is that if you don't have a mouseDown or mouseup event 
attached to a sprite somewhere in the current LDM frame then mouse events 
won't get trapped in the LDM, I usually have a persistent dummy sprite around to 
deal with this. So if you start with sprites with no behaviours you'll never be able 
to 
attach anything dynamically that depends on mouse events.

hth,

Rob
