not sure how to title this.

I have included my fla at http://www.geocities.com/paulbiondi@rogers.com/test1.fla

What I want is when you click on a bar it expand and pushes the ones below down. That has been accomplished. However, I want the expanded bar to close when a different bar is clicked. Right now that doesn't happen. The only way to close an expanded bar is to click on itself.

I should add that there is code on an invisible button that resides inside the bar movie clip.

Can anyone offer any suggestions?

Thank you very much in advance.

I didn't get to look at the fla long, but I noticed you're using a function with an "open" or "close" argument, so that's should make it easy. You can try recording which bar was opened by putting in the button something like



_root.runMenu(_root.barThatIsOpen, "closeit");
_root.runMenu(this._name, "openit");
_root.barThatIsOpen = this._name;


Hope that helps!

Hey thanks Smee,

I haven't had enough of a chance to fiddle with it yet, but what I did is add the code to the else part of the statement in the button and unfortunately it made no change...
