Featured Tutorial: How to use onClipEvent(mouseUp) and onClipEvent(mouseDown)
Harnessing clip events to capture and distinguish between mouse clicks is a clever way of making dynamic buttons. Just like you embed on release or press code etc. on orthodox buttons, you can use the clip event handlers for mouse interactions (in unison with collision detection) to create dynamic buttons and interactivity using movie clip symbols. In this tutorial I will show you how clip events for mouseUp and mouseDown can be used to start and stop a timer and launch an action as a result of the length of time the timer runs for.

Forum query: Best way to get user's browser to remember which SWFs have been loaded already?
The site has a Flash banner across the top that is loaded randomly every time a page loads. I'm trying to get a new flash banner to be displayed until they've all been displayed. That is, they won't repeat - at least not right away. What is the easiest way to accomplish this? A cookie or what? I'm good with AS2.0, but unsure about where/in what language this would be best accomplished. Tha...

Forum query: [MX] Moving Buttons and Disabling Things
I've asked many place and searched through the tutorials on Flashkit and I still cannot learn how to make buttons move!

Forum query: [CS3] Which Action Script to learn/use?
I developed my personal site back in the MX days. I am redesigning the site and trying to figure out which Action Script version to use. I do not want to use a version that a lot of people have to upgrade their flash player. My site is just a simple personal Print Design Portfolio. If I use 3.0 Script, I always like to learn the latest and greatest, will a lot of users have to upgrade to see my ...

Forum query: Using Flex Builder - setting stage width/height
Hi there, I have recently started using Flex Builder for my Actionscrtipt 3 projects because it is has a much better text editor and is designed around the eclipse framework. However I am having trouble with what should be a simply task. Flex builder compiles a swf for me from my main application file which is just an .as file. I therefore cannot put a variable reference on my main timeline and...
