That's just about where I find myself. The CF I can handle, if it's not too advanced, but I need beginner's ActionScript, but not AS that's non-CF applicable, if you know what I mean.
I don't even care if the CF is for beginners, too, as long as the AS is carefully explained, babystep-by-babystep, in conjunction with creating a CF app. I don't want to have to start with a 500-page book that explains AS top-to-bottom, then try to pick out what's most applicable to a CF app. I want to learn as I go...but have enough to build basic apps to start with. This can't be too much to ask for... Rick -----Original Message----- From: S.
