Product Description: Untitled
Macromedia Flash MX ActionScripting: Advanced Training From the Source teaches readers ActionScript using a hands-on, project-based approach. This book will be different in several ways. Instead of just explaining how scripting works, explains scripting by translating real-life activities into scripts, so that users can begin to see the association of how programming and scripting is something they instinctively already know how to do. Readers will be shown many methodologies and techniques for building nearly thirty real-life Flash ActionScript projects, including sample games, wireless applications, Web sites, and more, enabling them to work faster and more efficiently. The companion CD-ROM contains all project files and images necessary for each project in the book.

Before I bought this book, I only know a little about programming and knew only the basic stuff in Flash: tweening, point a to b animation, etc. Wanting to go to the next level, I bought this book. I never look back since. What makes this book perfect to learn actionscript, in my opinion, is that every line of code is always explained clearly and thoroughly in lay man's term. This book is written in such a way that as if the author's are there with you. By the time you finish reading this book, you'll be more than ready to make your own applications.

I do a lot of advanced ActionScripting and development, but I have had a lot of holes missing and things that I did not quite understand. This book fills in the gaps that are left out with other Flash books. This book explains the process and programming in a complete and easy to understand fashion. This books shows and explains the how and the why.
This is a great book, even if you are more advanced with ActionScript, you'll find yourself understanding more about it and new ways to develop and program your Flash development projects.

I found this book to be very helpful. It breaks Actionscripting down into easily digestible chunks and leads you through the learning process step by step. The lessons are clearly and entertainingly written and the humour is an unexpected bonus. I found it especially helpful that the book gives a detailed description of what each element in a script does.

If you're looking for a straightforward way to learn Action Script, you must get this book. It includes excellent examples in a hands-on, project-based learning environment. It really demystifies a lot about scripting in Flash. I've bought several books dealing with Flash MX, and this is definitely the best one I've ever read.

right now I have been tweening in flash for several months and I got some honest comments from visiters of my website that it was dull and boring. I aggreed with these comments and decided to take it one step further thus I bought this book to learn actionscripting. I have had a little previous knowledge of programming, I have learnt full HTML and a bit of visual basic 6.0. But none of this knoledge came in that useful when it came to action script. This book teaches you from the beginning, right up to the advanced. But the main reason I wrote this review is because I totaly disagree with the review writen by someone called 'A Reader from USA' I mean to say I no the title is a bit misleading but for god sakes, how on earth can you give this book such a bias and unfair judgement if you haven't even bought it and you said that you only ficked though it. Honestly how stupid can you get.
