Animations finish inside button?

Im having trouble figuring out how to make the movie clips inside of my buton complete themselves before continuing on to the link. Curently, when you hold down the button, an animated hand pops up and pushes it down, but if you just click the button fast, without holding it, it skips over the animated hand. Could anybody help me figure out how to make this hand play even if it is pushed quickly?
thnak you,

Hi, what you want to do is move the movie clip(s) out of the button. Then you can use the button events to control the clip i.e. if you gave your roll over animation the instance name roller then:

...wait havent we already been over this? I just found your old thread with the exact same problem and the solution.

Button With Movie Clips?

i tried that method but for some reason its not working...heres the script that i entered....

on (release)
{animationpush.gotoAndPlay(10)
}

but its still not playing the animation after i click the button.
Also i added a stop to my actions frame. Is there something that im doing wrong still?

I noticed that you had some incorrect syntax. Try:

on (release) {
animationpush.gotoAndPlay(10);
}

Here's a simple example of controlling your clip outside of the button with scripting.
