Hello all,

*Warning possible stupid n00b question coming...

I have a question regarding the onRelease command. Why is it on some
invisible buttons the onRelease command works on a single click while others
work on a double click? The site example above allows for a single click when
entering the country, however, clicking on 'Products' requires a double-click.
Once a double-click is performed, then it will open with a single click. Here
is the code that I have used for "Country Select":

eng_button.onRelease = function() {
gotoAndPlay("pre_close");
};

Here is the code for "Products":

on (release) {
prod_but.onRelease = function() {
loadMovie("products.swf", "prod");
};
}

Now... the obvious difference is ( on (release) {} ). I can see that. But is
that why? it would appear that there are 2 "onRelease" instances for the
prod_but (product button). I have not changed the code to remove the ( on
(release) {} ) as of yet simply because the code is on the button itself and I
wanted to know if it would mess anything up before i made this change. I know,
a bit too cautious - but hey - I've already had to start from scratch once...
don't wanna have to do it again :oD

Thanks for any and all of your help in advance...

Ok,

Took a huge deep breath and I changed the code:

prod_but.onRelease = function() {
loadMovie("products.swf", "prod");
};

...and it works on a single click now... Learned something new today - looks
like you cant add the onRelease funtion directly to a button without adverse
effects. I have to test the other buttons to make sure they work too!

Thanks!
