Product Description
Author Jeanette Stallons has spent a lot of time thinking about application development with Flash MX--so that you don't have to! Instead, you can get right down to doing: Drawing on the wealth of information Jeanette has developed as technical lead for Macromedia's Authorized Training curriculum, this volume offers a series of step-by-step tutorials that will have you using all of Flash MX 2004's new features in the process of developing a dynamic real-world Flash application. Along the way, you'll learn about using ActionScript 2.0, the Flash UI component framework and dynamic data, screens, MovieClip objects, and more. In the end, you'll come away with a solid grounding in Flash theory and technique that will propel your own projects to stunning results. The accompanying DVD includes all of the project files required to complete the book¿s exercises as well as a trial version of Flash MX 2004.

Customer Reviews & Comments
I'll be brief. It teaches efficient programming and good tips for beginner programmers but don't try to follow the steps outlined in the book. Seems that author got lost in his own steps. For example page 144 step 8 doesn't indicate that you should place the onChanged code in the "calcObject.as" file, instead it says that you sould place it after the onKillFocus event. I lost a lot of time trying to figure out why my program wasn't working (wanting to practice debugging) until I finally looked at the files in the DVD. I'd say just read the book and test using the files that came in the DVD if things don't work.
