ok i am doing a dynamic drop down menu which uses php to read the folders name and put it into an array in flash...

i'm using duplicateMovieClip to do it... trying to avoid using xml as i want my client to create actual folders instead of editing the xml file...

i've tried doing it as of the attached fla. the behaviours are working what i want it to be but the functionality is wrong... the behaviour is when i rollover the top-level button, it displays the submenu or in this case the sub-level buttons... the problem is when i click any one of the button in the submenu... it doesn't work...

please take a look at my fla and points to me the right direction of doing a proper drop down menu...

thanks alot..

I'm not sure if you can do a menu with duplicateMovieclip.
All the buttons would be the same, right?
