The issue is not the interval but the rollOver. when you move your
mouse, the tooltip MC is not immediately moved and you roll over it (so
you got the
I-beam cursor) when it is moved the rollOver function is called again
and the interval is launched again.


You only have to put _root.tooltip.onMouseMove  instead of
_root.tooltip.onEnterFrame and it will be ok (until the user don't move
the mouse too fast)

Hi list...

//Happy new year!
I have a tooltip function that makes a tooltip MC follow the mouse over
when rolling over another MC, but it gets blown out after two frames,
and the mouse turns to an I-beam cursor.  I can't figure out why.  I
*don't* think it's a setInterval issue, but I might be wrong.
Curiously, the onEnterFrame function works only when I *don't* set the
_x property of the tooltip MC.

Any feedback is appreciated.

                this.tipID = setInterval(this, "displayTip", 1000);
