    hey...i'm working on an intertext project using flash...

    what i've trying to figure out is how to get a 'link' to open above itself...

    in this sense, what i want to do is 'click' on a word and have a new story open above it...

    but i can 't just dictate a symbol in a layer or a level...
    is there a way to get things to open above each other automatically that i haven't thought of...

    basically i want it like a ton of html popups that open above each other that can be closed...

    thoughts? i imagine there's an easy solution i've just never seen...

    thanks in advance.

    your thinking of swapDepths

    mc1.swapDepths(countMc+1);

    countMc being a counter value which you add to everytime you click on a word. That way it will open up above the last mc.

    so... countMc++

    mc1 can be a duplicatedMc or an attached movie clip.. read the flash dictionary under help in flash

    its all there..
