Button States

A button can change it's appearance according to what 'State' it is in. There are three states: Up, Over & Down:

• Up: Is when the mouse pointer is not over the button.
• Over: Is when the mouse pointer is over the button.
• Down: Is when the mouse pointer is over the button and the mouse button is down.
  
  My Example: Download the Flash File  Beg 005a
  
  
  Click and drag your mouse over this button.

Click and roll your mouse over the button below. You will see the Up, Over and Down states.

My Example: Download the Flash File  Beg 005b

Click and roll your mouse over to see the different button states.

Note: The button has no actions and so does not do anything.
