switch is just a shorter version of if..elseif statements. for example:

switch(_root.goTo){
     case 'news':
          _root.newsfloat.play();
     break;
     case 'page2':
          _root.page2float.play();
     break;
}

that is the same as doing:

if(_root.goTo == 'news'){
     _root.newsfloat.play();
}else if (_root.goTo == 'page2'){
     _root.page2float.play();
}

Well, almost but there are some major difference. For instance:

1) switch() can only check equality. It can NOT check > or < .
2) You can check mulitple cases at a time by not including a break imediately after the case. eg.

code:

---

for (i:Number = 0; i<40; i++) {

   j = Math.floor(i/4);

   switch(j) {

      case 1:

      case 3:

      case 5:

         X += 50;

      break;

      default: 

         X += 10;

    }

}

---

Or something like that.

P.S. You guys need to get a new code parser
