    @dtnyc5000, Thank You!

    @aDistortedMind, if you created a true functional loader (not a dummy), your content ought to be heavy enough to actually require some loading time. If that’s the case, hit cmd+return twice which will force the viewer to simulate real waiting time based on the specs. You will find the same command on Main Menu View> Simulate Downlaod.. I hope this helped.

  • aDistortedMind:

    How do you get the preloader to work before the main content appears, i can’t get mine to work.

    I stumbled on this video when I was looking for a cleaner way to structure flash websites. I was thinking of using document class, what benefits do you see from using document class over just variables and functions on the timeline?

    Does anyone know how to add the buy now script for paypal into flash?? The button allows you to choose options and is by now programmed but I don’t know how to introduce or bring it into flash. Can Anyone Help??

    Not every developer would.

  • MonsuerLePlague:

    I don’t reckon Rosa is criticizing the teaching style as much as what is life educated. Putting code onto your time line instead of organizing it into classes and packages can get very confusing and messy. This type of tutorial is useless for developers who intend to compete in an industry that is moving towards OOP and away from procedural programming.

    excellent tutotial

    rosaPokemon – Don’t disapprove others teaching methods.
    If you don’t like the way Adam is teaching, that’s your problem. I would go to say from everyone who has successfully completed Adam’s tutorials like he uses a very simple and effective style of teaching flash.

    nice tutorial, but how do i code my OWN buttons? it seems as though the only to get the coding is to download the buttons off of developphp… but how do i code my own???

  • rosaPokemon:

    What is there to prove? I’m not saying it’s impossible building a website this way but it’s is how you did things back in the early stages of AS2.

    AS3 now have Document Class Support so there’s really is no need putting a single line for code on the timeline. Any developer would prefer having everything nice and structured in a OOP environment.

    OOP isn’t necessary to apply in all projects but in better projects, for examples websites, it’s fantastic.

    Plus it’s how everyone in the industry woks.

  • trustchipper:

    do you know how to make a custom flash player like youtube but customize it
    answer back delight

  • rosaPokemon:

    Don’t teach people to make their sites on the timeline. It’s really messy to have the code all over the place and you can’t make full use of all the fantastic features of AS3.

  • ejeffre1111:

    About 1/2 way through, you tell us to make the myMenu movie clip, then make a new layer on the myMenu and paste in the button. When I try to do this, I keep getting “You cannot place a symbol inside itself”. I have tried copious era and started over numerous era. Anyy suggestions?
