    Open a new flash stage, drag and drop from component library.

        Hey peepz, I'm trying to create a slide gallery but got completely lost. I got some of the code that I got as a sample and am trying to edit it to fit what I'm doing.

        This is the code from the sample. It creates 4 buttons and each assign xlocation, but what if I want to use just a prev and next button to do the same??? Thanks!!

        panel.x = 550;
        var targetX:int = 20;
        b1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.C... b1ClickEventHandler);
        b2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.C... b2ClickEventHandler);
        b3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.C... b3ClickEventHandler);
        b4.addEventListener(MouseEvent.C... b4ClickEventHandler);
        panel.addEventListener(Event.ENT... enterFrameHandler);

        function enterFrameHandler(e:Event):void
        {
        panel.x+=(targetX-panel.x)/5;
        }

        function b1ClickEventHandler(e:MouseEvent...
        {
        targetX = 193;
        }
        function b2ClickEventHandler(e:MouseEvent...
        {
        targetX = 20;
        }
        function b3ClickEventHandler(e:MouseEvent...
        {
        targetX = -150;
        }
        function b4ClickEventHandler(e:MouseEvent...
        {
        targetX = -322;
        }

          i'm not sure how you want the movement increments to work. if its a certain amount in addition to each movieclip's width, could just get the width of the clip and add a number to it:
          mc.width += 50;

          however, if yo need to specify particular coordinates, you could store them in an array and have a counter correspond to where you are in the array. the prev and next buttons would increment and decrement the counter accordingly. the following code may be a buggy, i haven't programmed with AS in a while (and i'm tired ;) ).

          counter:int = 0;
          targetX = new Array("193", "20", "-150", "322");
          next.addEventListener(MouseEvent... changeCount);
          prev.addEventListener(MouseEvent... changeCount);

          function changeCount(e:Event):void{
          if(e.target == next){
          if(counter == targetX.length){
          counter = 0;
          }
          else{
          counter++;
          }
          }
          if(e.target == prev){
          if(counter == 0){
          counter = 5;
          }
          else{
          counter--;
          }
          }
          slideTo();
          }

          function slideTo():void{
          if(counter == num[counter[){
          targetX[counter]= 193;
          }
          else if(counter == num[counter]){
          targetX[counter] = 20;
          }
          //etc....
          }
