help with buttons within buttons

[jpixel]

I am trying to get stop and play buttons for the background music of my site to work within an animated rollover state of a separate button. When I put the stop and play buttons into the rollover animation they effect the hit state of the button they are inside, how do I get around this? If you look at www.thepixelplaypen.com/site you will see the menu bar at the bottom. If you click on the references button (the 3d thought bubble) i have directed it to how I want the page to look and work when the music bar is 'rolled over'.

I'd make the music bar a movieclip, and inside that movieclip have the two buttons. Buttons within buttons is a bad idea, is can cause issue like what you are trying to go.

Instead, if you made the music bar a movieclip and applied some AS to do to adjust it's location, with buttons nested inside of that. It'd work a lot better.

Tough to explain without seeing the file, not sure "exactly" what your code structure looks like.
