Author onRollOver/Out problem

I am trying to create a very simple menu in flash to include in an html page.
The menu will look something like this:

menu>

and when I rollover he word "menu>" it will expand to look like this:

menu>item1>item2>item3.... etc

I have the word "menu" on frame 1 af a MC and the whole expanded menu on frame
2. On a different layer I have invisible buttons. The size of the flash movie
will be ONLY 15 pixels hig and as long as the menu needs to be. The problem I
am having is that while the onRollover works fine, the onRollout doesn't (or it
misses 90% of the times). In similar projects I have placed huge invisible
areas around the menu so that when the mouse rolls over them it functions like
a onRollOut (I hope this is clear).
In this case I cannot use this trick because the movie is only as high as the
menu itself.
Does anyone have any suggestion on how to track the mouse outside the flash
movie?
Thanks
