FLASH: Sliding an image smoothly

[Jonny Danger]

Hey everybody.  Im trying to make an interactive map of the world so i can 

show pictures of some of the places ive been.  What im going for is to show 

a section of the map(its much to big to show all at once) and if you move 

your mouse near one edge of the map it will scroll the map in that 

direction.


There is an exact example(albiet done with shockwave) at 

http://www.burton.com   Click on 'explore' and a screen will open with a map 

on it that has the exact functionality that i am looking for.


I have tried writing all sorts of commands for it, i can get it to move a 

specific number of pixels *ONCE* each time i rollover the button.  I can not 

get it to continue to get it to scroll slowly until i roll out though.  As 

far as i can figure, i cant use a loop because the screen isnt updated until 

the loop completes(i dont understand why they did this, at least there 

should be an option to make it behave differently, oh well:)


Well if any of you guys knows how to do this, or has time to figure it out, 

i would very appreciative

Thanks, Jonny
