"private" methods were the give away! If you have a Java background, you're ahead of the game. I would REALLY recommend you get a good book. Moock's ActionScript for Flash MX is in my opinion the best available. Particularly for one with a Java background: Moock takes pains to point out where ActionScript and Java part ways. Private methods are a good example. Flash doesn't have private methods, at least not MX. You can WRITE a private method, but more as a reminder to yourself not to access it directly. You have to pretend it's private! As far as doing "Flashy things" with code: take a look at Penners [url=http://www.robertpenner.com/easing/easing_demo.html]demo[/url]. All code, and very flexible. ActionScript is what is taking Flash beyond mere animation into truly interactive realms. Your quiz sounds neat. Get Moock's book - he uses a quiz as an example throughout his book, adding features and complexity as he goes. [This message has been edited by Steve (edited 10-14-2003).] Loading...
