Macromedia Flash ActionScripting

Virtual Training Company's Flash ActionScripting tutorial gives you an in-depth look into the scripting abilities of Macromedia's Flash 5. Author Don Rissler teaches with the assumption that you are already familiar with Flash, and he dives right into teaching you the actionscripting capabilities. Some of what you will learn includes Motion blur, the Ring of Saturn, the break down of scripting functions, and making button scripts. To get started, simply click one of the topics below.
