hey,
i have a movie clip that when i roll over it gets highlighted:
on(rollOver){ gotoAndStop(2);}
on roll out it goes back to frame 1 which isnt highlighted:
on(rollOut){ gotoAndStop(1)}
when i release it goes to frame 3:
on(release){ gotoAndStop(3)}
BUT when i release then rollout it does the rollout action and goes to frame 1. i wont it to stay on frame 3 even when i rollout. Is it possible? Plz need help..

When you are wanting buttons to be able to be toggled you need to add a true/false variable that states if they are toggled or not.

Try this code )placed inside the movieclip for this example):
CODE
this.stop();
var toggled:Boolean = false;
this.onRollOver = function(){
    if(this.toggled == false){
        this.gotoAndStop(2);
    }
}
this.onRollOut = function(){
    if(this.toggled == false){
         this.gotoAndStop(1);
    }
}
this.onRelease = function(){
    this.gotoAndStop(3);
    if(this.toggled == false){
        this.toggled = true;
    }
    else{
        this.toggled = false;
    }
}


Hope that helps.

Okay here is a walk though on how to use the given code (above).

1 - Create your button movieclip with the 3 keyframes (1 2 and 3)
1.5 - Place the button stuff in each of the keyframes
2 - Create a new layer that spans the 3 keyframes (above the first layer in the same movieclip)
3 - Place the code in the new layer
4 - Test it out (should work, I am using AS 2.0 in Flash 8 Professional and it works perfectly fine with that).

Hope that helps.

There are quite few way to do it, but i try to make simple and nearest your scripting style.

CODE
on(rollOver){
    if(!pressed)
        gotoAndStop(2);
}
on(rollOut){
    if(!pressed)
        gotoAndStop(1);
}
on(release){
    gotoAndStop(3);
    pressed = true;
}


what i added is rollover and rollout event depending on a "pressed" variable. "pressed" default value is false, and rollover and rollout event only work if the "pressed" is set to true. after release, "pressed" is set to true which make rollover and rollout stop working.

hope this help.
