You only need to delete the function, not set it to null. By setting it to null, the player still has a reference to the function whether it's null or not. Hope that helps.

When I want to "freeze" or unfreeze the movieclip, I use <code> public function set frozen(b:Boolean) { if (b==true) { delete mclip.onRollOver; mclip.onRollOver=null; delete mclip.onRollOut; mclip.onRollOut=null; delete mclip.onMouseDown; mclip.onMouseDown=null; delete mclip.onMouseMove; mclip.onMouseMove=null; delete mclip.onMouseUp; mclip.onMouseUp=null; } else initMouseActions(); } </code> This also works ok, BUT the cursor stays the "over a button" style of a little hand. Why is that? And how can I get rid of it, short of using commands to change the cursor?
