RE: FLASH: random movie clips

[Toni Barskile]

Thanks.  I'd love to see the example on your site, but I keep getting a 

server not found message.


Also, my movie clips are about 30 frames long, since it involves making the 

character pop up, go down, and an alternate movie when it's "hit". Should I 

add another layer to the movie and put the actionscript that controls them 

there, and then put all my movie clips in a layer right beneath them? (Right 

now, each movie instance has its own layer).
