Flash attachMovie Problem

    Hi there.

    I want to implement a drop-down style menu which appears when the mouse hovers over a button.

    Here's what I have so far:

    on(rollOver){
    _root.attachMovie("Symbol3", "Symbol31", 1);
    }

    "Symbol3" is a movie where another button appears.

    Unfortunately, when I hover over the button, nothing happens. I have entered other functions in the above function to see of the event is triggered at all and they work correctly, so it does get called.

    I have tried changing the layer number (the last function parameter above) so that its equal to the highest layer I have in my project but nothing happens there either. No errors are given saying that the movie couldn't be loaded or whatever. Am I missing some lines that actually play the movie?

    Thanks in advance for the help,
    Borat.
