thanks all for your help!

Thnx

Hi,

I'm having a problem getting Flash to add numbers input into text boxes. I have two input text boxes set up, each with assigned variable names. If, for example, I enter 2 in the first box,...

Hi

Can anyone tell me how to create a radial gradient fill with a transparent centre gradually changing to opaque at the edge of the fill? For example, I want the middle of my fill to be 0% alpha,...
