FLASH: duplicating movie clips

[Dave Hollinden]

I'm confused about where duplicated movie clips exist on the timeline.  


On the main timeline I have a button, and movie clip called Info.  Info has

two labels; Park, which displays some text, and Play, which has a movie clip

named Event.  If there is more than one event to be displayed, the

actionscript at Play will duplicate the MC Event as many times as necessary.


When I roll over the button, it TT's Info to Goto Play, and I see the

contents of Event.  When I roll off the button, it TT's Info to Goto Park,

and the contents of Event disappear because Event doesn't exist at the label

Park.  


When I roll over the button and there is more than one event, I see multiple

copies of the MC event.  BUT, when I roll off the button, only the original

MC event disappears, and the duplicate copies of Event stay on the stage.


Shouldn't these duplicate copies go away?  Don't they also exist in the

keyframe where they were created, and then cease to exist if you go to a new

keyframe?
