Yep that works fine! Thanks very much - never seen the "&&" code before - looks like it will be handy.

Thanks for the reply - the && code was new to me.

Thanks very much for the reply but I'm such a newbie that a lot of the code is still a mystery.

If you don't have the time (or inclination) to answer one or two questions - don't worry leave it...

Anyone tell me how to make this code simpler - perhaps with an array? I'm killing myself writing lines an lines of code to do something which is really in the realms of laughably basic.

Hope it...

Hi I'm newbee (fash-numbty really) and virtully all of the people who have responded to my queries here have given me lots of help.

Absolute newbee I'm afraid - at the "knows a bit of AS but really know less than nothing" stage.

Keep getting "Unexpected File Format" when I try to open it - whatever I try.

Could you email it to huwrichrads50@btinternet.com - or just put the code up on Flashkit?

Thanks

Firstly big thanks for your patience! Told you I was a true newbie!

My only problem is that for some unknown reason my version of Flash won't open files that are compressed - even after I have...

Sorry about this! Really didn't want to waste your time with this - my fault - not making things clear. (A little knowledge is a dangerous thing and a pain in the a**e!)

I've put all this below in...

Had to take the AS code out only left a drag command in for the element I need to be draggable.

I also took the code you suggested earlier out. There are no MC's inside MC's here.

Thanks a lot again however time to fess up:

Firstly thanks for giving this question your time - really really appreciated.

This is how I interperated your advice - as you can see I don't really get AS.

How do I do this please:

I need a blue box with "man" typed into it made into a MC. (can do that bit)

Can images be stored in some sort of array and then called to the stage ramdomly?

Anyone know of an on-line tutorial which will show me how to do this?

I need to be able to hit a button which will randomly throw up one of a set of pictures which depict a sport to the stage.

Thanks both work and have, what I can see as, differing advantages.

I've got 10 boxes on the stage.

I want to start and stop dragging them all when needed.

Do I have to type in

boxone.onPress=function(){
startDrag(this);
}

Thanks!

Strangely though

this.startDrag

doesn't work but

startDrag(this)

Can this be done?

A draggable text box into which users can type short sentences?

Love to know how.


Thanks

Trying to get a movie to allow users to print what's on screen at any given timeat a frame named "3tenses".

Found a bit of code tried it got this error - no idea what it means or what I do.

...

That was quick!

Thanks very much - works.

Something was going on with my layers. When I called the AS it was happy to take

green.visible = false;

and work fine.
