Re: FLASH: A teacher wonders why ActionScript tutorials "bite"

[Branden Hall]

Well folks.. I have been planning this for a while... but I am starting a

new article series at Flashlite.net next week... "Branden's Brain" (Chrissy

came up with the name, and it was too funny not to use!)  issue 1 should be

up at Flashlite early next week...  It is a foray into exactly what you

folks have been talking about...  Actionscript for the masses... I am

massaging the text this weekend, however I would apprciate any teachers out

there, including the one who initiated this thread to email me at

bhallfigleaf [dot] com

 so I can send them a draft of issue 1.  Issue 1 covers

Flash's infrastructure, how the library, symbols, movie clips, and instances

all work with tell target, paths and variables.  Issue 2 will get more in

depth into variables as well as introduce expressions, and conditional

logic... all with a healthy added dose of my slightly twisted (not stirred!)

humor.  I hope you folks will like it!
