Mouse Wheel Support
Several Cool Focus applets support mouse-wheel scrolling in Internet Explorer 6 and higher. However, they can't provide this support natively, and need some help from your movie. Follow these steps to add support for the mouse-wheel:

  1. Add the following attribute to the HTML <object> tag that loads your movie:
    onmousewheel="onWheel();return false"
  2. Add the following script block to the page containing your movie:
    <script language="JavaScript">
    <!--
    function onWheel(){
    if (document.MyMovie) document.MyMovie.SetVariable("mousewheel",event.wheelDelta);}
    //-->
    </script>
    Change MyMovie to the 'ID' of your movie's <object> tag on the web page.

  3. In your Flash movie's first level, add this variable:
    mousewheel=-1;
  4. In your Flash movie, add an onClipEvent or create a timer which monitors the value of the 'mousewheel' variable:
    if (mousewheel > -1)
    {
        var m = mousewheel;
        mousewheel = -1;
        _level0.elevator.wheel=m;
    }
    Change _level0.elevator to the name of the applet object. (In each applet that supports wheel scrolling, the variable to target is named 'wheel'.)

  5. Note that ideally you should also use a hitTest to determine whether the mouse is actually over the applet when the value of 'mousewheel' changes.
