Ok guys, this is serious, I spend the whole day figuring out what in hell does variables have to do with object movement and movie loading in flash, so freaking simple, yet the text books don't lay it out this easy, they allways have to come up with this programming bable crap, are there any nice explanatory books on flash outthere?
All day long, at least I got my laughs with jox and montreal.
hehehehehehe

"are there any nice explanatory books on flash outthere? "
See "New Riders."

Don't see "Friends of Ed"
While the older FoE books on Flash 5 were decent, they've fallen off a bit IMHO.

you can also learn worlds of information from http://www.actionscripts.org/
Although I haven't really used there tutorials, my interns have and they always seem to figure everything out in a day or two.

Thanks for the info guys, I mean variables are used for a lot of things, but why the book doesn't give the right explanation without going so deep into programming? Why not something like: What are variables? How can we use variables? Examples of using variables? They just explain variables with text and data manipulation, I mean I know everything has a character name (files), but they don't put constructive examples for the non-programmer.
Thanks again dudes!
