Joe,
It's probably something like, checking the mouse location and based on that
adjusting the movement of the graphic... Does that help?

When using behaviors you need to remember that the object reference always
gets passed as the first parameter. In other words:
on foo me
me.foo2("test")
end
on foo2
put param(1) -- you'll get something like you did below
put param(2) -- you'll get "test"
end

There's a list in the lingo dictionary under netError... for the netLingo
stuff... Not sure if that's the list y'all are talking about.

Well, if you are in D8 or higher, you can go to the property inspector
under the Movie tab and simply type the desired number of channels (I
believe up to 999). I can't remember where in D7 you can do this...

Okay,
I understand you are not being vague on purpose but, it is real tough to
know what to look for when we have no idea what the error is... There are
some properties in your .ini file that you can turn out that will provide a
more verbose error message. Try setting:

Look into the externalEvent in the lingo dictionary. You could interface
this function with a javaScript method within the browser code.

Well, based on the example you provided below, you would want to say:
list = value(ballPath1)
ballPath1 is a variable
Yup, you can use budAPI or fileXtra to do this.

The problem is the forward slash here... What you should probably do (based
on the information you have provided) is check the platform and then set the
path
Did you create an instance of the Xtra?

You could try this (UNTESTED):
set the forecolor of char 15 of field "fieldName" = colorValue
I also believe that color value has to be an integer.
