 Animation in Flash revolves around the timeline. In your timeline, you can specify a starting point and an ending point for a particular event. I use the word point as opposed to time, for the concept of time in Flash is different than in the real world. In the real world, you measure the time it takes to do something in seconds or minutes or hours. In Flash, the primary measure of time revolves around frames, and the seconds/minutes of an animation are dependent on your frame rate.

| So you want dynamic content on your Flash movie. Sounds simple, right? Well let me tell you that it is, and well, it isn't. This tutorial assumes a basic knowledge of Actionscript, PHP and MySQL. If you have that, it's time to move on. Otherwise, I recommend you do some reading on the subjects...

| This is a fairly simple technique that uses a simple setup that will send variables from a Flash movie to a PHP script, and then that PHP script will print the variables out.

| Scrollbars are great for displaying a lot of information within a small area. Despite their importance, we often take scrollbars for granted. For example, your browser window should display a scrollbar on the right side of this page for allowing you to easily scroll down. We don't really think about them;- we just expect them to be there when the need arises.
Yet, creating a scrollbar is trickier than using one. In this tutorial, you will learn how to create your own compact, easily customizable scrollbar in Flash. Even though Flash comes with several scrolling components, the scrollbar you will be creating allows for easier customization along with a significantly smaller file size compared to its built-in variation.

| Instead of laboring many hours tracing a bitmap in Illustrator or Freehand, you can use a little known Flash tool to convert a bitmap into a vector - the Trace Bitmap Tool. There are two reasons you may prefer vector over bitmap in your flash movies. One: to achieve a cool look. Two: to lower your file size.

| When you play an animation in Flash, unless you used ActionScript, your animation simply moves through the timeline - displaying whatever is contained on those frames. That is very linear, and sometimes you would want to tell Flash to skip a few frames, or jump to a new frame that is 100 frames down. How can you do that? This tutorial will show you!

| What is masking? Masking is a simple way to reveal parts of a layer below. This tutorial will take you through many types of masking from static masking where a image is shown through a non moving mask, animated masks where the mask moves to reveal bits of the image, and a special blurred edge mask

| A simple tutorial to teach you how to create full screen Flash page within a HTML page. This tutorial may be a bit different from the usual full screen effects you've seen. It doesn't scale the height and width of the Flash file, but merely expands the Flash page without scaling the elements inside. Thus if your using pixel fonts the text will still remain clear and crisp

| Like I have been doing for the past few versions of Flash, I have decided that my first tutorial for Flash 8 would be the "Creating a Simple Animation" tutorial. If you are new to Flash or Flash 8, this tutorial will serve as a good introduction to simple animation effects and the tools you will use to create those effects.

| If and else statements are some of the more commonly used words in not only ActionScript but most modern programming languages. They fall under an umbrella of concepts that use terms such as conditionals or boolean logic. The terminology is not as important as what they actually do. They help your code decide between two or more potential paths. They have a basic principle, which is, if statement one is true to statement two, then run the following code before the if is closed.
