uh, no, but if you have a specific question relating to using if/then/else statements I might be able to answer them for you. Depends on what it is you need to know. Actually a good place to look...

hmmm...yes, intriguing. I see what you are trying to do, and I like the sounds of it. I would give you an answer right now but it would be the wrong answer. I will think about it tonight, and try...

That's cool. Well you may have a difficult time doing this. I think temp files, such as those in your temp folder work a little differently than on the PC I could be totally wrong here (and if I am...

maybe? not sure.

When you say you want to view a shot at a time are you referring to a static image, or a seperate movie clip. If it is a static image you could always build in a movie player feature into your file...

Check macromedia's site for an extension called 'Zoom Map' or something like that(?). Maybe this will help. It show's how to build a set of zooming in/out functions with a map (if I remember...

what kind of vector shapes, cause Flash does come with a fairly good set of vector creation tools?

Not import it, it's obviously been protected for a reason. However if you really want to get into the protected file there are utilities out there that will allow you to open it, don't ask me what...

only file size, if you are loading in multiple swf files with seperate embed tags you can really bog down a page fast, other than that you should be fine...(I think?)

I haven't encountered this problem, but I have encountered the problem that when embedded on an html page, and I use a preloader to load the swf the printed page leaves the swf blank. Once I remove...

I understand fully. Long boring corporate days are dragging me down. I miss fun flash filled days of actually building stuff and learning. Stagnation sucks. That's why flashkit rules because I...

the letters a through i are an array. the variable matrix is storing an array. sorry, I have no idea what I am saying, I just felt bad that no one replied, so I figured maybe I'll just say...

I also tested this method in Netscape 6.2 and it worked great, just in case you were wanting to know, oh and I am on a PC running Win 2000 as well, if it is of any consequence.

I stuck the window.open function into a javascript on the html page with the button, gave it a function name like myTest, stuck in this code on my button in flash:

It depends what you mean by clean-edged cutout images. If you mean you would like to create a border effect on your image, like sharply cut off corners you can do that. I can explain that but if...

frame = Math.ceil((loadedbytes/totalbytes)*100);

Don't know whether this will solve it or not. Give it a try anyway.

hey nice site, I hadn't seen that before.

In regards to your question I would maybe start going through the tutorials in the getting started area of this site, or I would try going through the...

According to the actionscript dictionary your sound name needs to be wrapped in quotation marks: Movieclip.stop("Page1"); but they refer to the name of the sound object as the idName, and I am not...

sorry I rushed ahead without reading the shape hints line, but this way did work for me. Guess I should read the whole thing before saying anything. Well if my explanation helps then I guess it's...

got it, took a minute because I am slow.

First the javascript:

<*script language="javascript"*>
function nameHere(){
parent.framename.location.href = "source.htm";
}

ok, I will be back in about ten minutes then. Yes we can do this, quite easily, it's just a matter of geting the script right. My brain is working very slowly today.
