Re: FLASH: Best way to learn Actionscript??

[Flash Gordon]

I COULD look at the movies, and have - I've gotten SOME knowledge from

these, but as I've said - it's like stealing JavaScript - I can get it to

work, but I want to know WHY it works. I steal scripts and use them, but I

want to be able to make my own out of "thin air" when I need FLASH to do

something way cool.

Anybody???????
