RE: FLASH: Web Page Crisis !!

[Lamont, Sarah]

First of all, I think the best way to get the information you need would be

to invest some money and buy one of the many good Flash information books

out there. : ]

But I'll try to help you out for now.

this, I'm not sure what you mean by. Do you mean that you think it would be

a waste of time for the person to view your flash site if they don't look at

the product section? If this is true, than maybe you want to think of the

reasons for making the site flashed in the first place. If the flash adds to

it, than use it. But if it is just easier for you to make the site in flash,

DO NOT use flash. Good old html is still quite useful for a simple site.

For this question, I think you could just use a tell target. A loaded movie

would work also, but a tell target would probably just be easier. That's up

to you though. If you're not certain about how to use these features, check

out:  http://www.flashkit.com for some tutorials. There are also hundreds of

flash resources listed at : http://www.thelinkz.com if you need more. : ]


well hope that helped. : ]
