Fade Out > Fade In

[Oucch]

I have 4 pages, Home, Info, Projects, Contact. I want to fade the text out when the user clicks a button to go to another page, and then fade in the text for the appropriate page.

I want to know whether I should go about this by creating each page as a MC or is it easier to use one timeline?

And then...what actionscript do I need to make this work! Thanks.

I suggest you us individual movieclips. If you use a movieclip symbol to hold your text element, it should be easy to adjust the alpha of the movieclip to produce exactly what you're looking for.

Thanks for the reply....do you have any idea of the actionscript to be used to link the buttons to correct pages/play the fade?

I continued to think about it a little further and I think I understand what you're looking for. If the four pages have the same layout, or at least very similar, then the process turns to just populating the correct variables (object) with the information related to the button selected.

Is the information for each page (text and images) already loaded into Flash or is it externally loaded when need?
