could someone help me to find a nice simple dynamic menu. The ones I have found are either over complicated or missing something. Basicly I just want one rollover button duplicated in a verticle list. Sub menus not too important.
Thanks!

xml based or not?

no just in flash. I've been buidling menus in the past with individual buttons.... so I want to learn how to do it properly so it duplicates a single mc/button but each button reads a different text.

the examples on flashkit etc are so damn wack you better design and code your own one.

everything on flashkit is wack! They need some kind of quality control on that site.
fair enough though.
- stewart0
they should rename it to Flashkid.com

Anything dynamic menu isn't really simple but this is somthing i've used a few times. It's straight forward enough.
Make a movie clip with top left registration.instance name = clip_mc
inside this clip
2 layers
top: dynamic text feild, multiline, instance name = set_txtbottom: button, instance = click_btn
then new layer on the root and paste this :
lengthSet = 5;
titles_arr = [];
titles_arr[0] = "item 1 5555555555555555dddddddddddddddd...
titles_arr[1] = "item 2";
titles_arr[2] = "item 3";
titles_arr[3] = "item 4";
titles_arr[4] = "item 5";
//
buildClips = function () {
for (i=0; i

thanks guys. WOuld anyone like to do me a quick favour? I have this dynamic menu in place but I just want it so when a button is clicked it stays black and also... how do I tell each button to do a different thing> for example button 1 goes to frame 1 and button 2 goes to frame 2 etc. Does anyone wanna take a look for me? thanks!!!
