Any ideas?   Thanks mate.

It’s been downloaded 650 times and there have only been a few comments here so I’m presuming it has worked for some, if not most, people! (You should be able to see it work in the movie above too).

As regards CS5, I’m not able to test for that at the moment, but it should be okay there too (let me know). If comments keep coming that it doesn’t work, I will take a look when I can. Thank you.

Make sure you are on a recent version of Flash and the movie is set to use AS3. At the moment I am on a different project and can't boot up Flash and start debugging this but if multiple comments start coming in I will check it out ASAP.. Hi Ben,
