When a movieclip has a buttonevent placed on it anything inside it will not be
able to get any buttonevents. What you need to do is use a mouseMove event and
a hitTest to simulate a rollover/rollout event either for the nav or the
subitems.
E.g:
Nav.onMouseMove = function()

Is there any other work around? I'd prefer to avoid wasting cycles checking the
location of the mouse every time it's moved.
I was hoping there was some sort of submenu flag or workaround that allowed
this. Anyone know of it?

One other option, is NOT nesting the clips. At least not code wise.

Thanks it seems to work now. However, I was expecting the onLoad

You can do it with an HTML textfield.

A site I'm working up has a shell/module structure. Each module

Some modules might have last/next methods, some might have last/next

If you want to use TextFormat, you can apply a textformat to a text

textformat objects is to copy the current format into a temp var

Yes you will notice alot has been laxed on the PSP Flash Player.
I spent a few weeks testing, but I'm slowly discovering Mobile Flash is just
not robust enough (again).

this will only do the current frame, you cannot do the entire timeline

Current frame only is fine, as it's only going to do some initialisation
