Help for StartDrag

flash actionscript:

Hi everyone
I am very much a new bee to Flash. I am trying to create a slider bar. When I
have a button that has a blank StartDrag on Press like this
on (press) {
startDrag ("");
}
I can drag the button fine but of course it goes everywhere.
When I try to restrict the button within a rectangle, like this
on (press) {
startDrag ("", false, 0, 0, 300, 300);
}
The moment I press on the button it disappears. Do any of you experts know why
such a thing is happening and how I can fix it?
Thank you very much.

Hi newbee
you're code is fine, so the only thing I can think of is that you have
you're coordinates mixed up, and 0,0 for the movie clip that you want
to drag is somewhere off the stage, if this is true, try changeing the
coordinates inside the movie so that the graphic or whatever you want
to drag is on 0,0 coordinates within the movie. (That probably makes
no sense)

u should use a movie clip instead of button, the movie clip action script is
shown follow:
onClipEvent (load) {
top = _y;
bottom = _y+100;
left = _x;
right = _x;
}

This example can find in Flash , go to menu bar > Window > internal symbol
library >button
