ActionScript has blossomed into a large and important language whose sheer volume of capabilities can be daunting. The ActionScript Cookbook breaks it all down into tasks that are relevant, practical, and insightful. Appealing to the budding coder as well as the experienced ActionScript jockeys, this book offers new perspectives and approaches to ActionScript development that will empower all developers. The ActionScript Cookbook contains over 300 recipes on a myriad of topics. Here's a sampling of what you'll find:
Drawing shapes at runtime
Controlling movie clips programmatically
Accepting user input and manipulating text strings
Accessing audio and video via Flash Communications Server
Working with Flash Remoting to connect to back end databases
Using record sets with data grids
And, much, much more in over 20 recipe-laden chapters
Seven full chapters of sample applications including a Video/Chat Message Server application and more
This Cookbook's logical progression from short recipes for small problems to longer, more complex scripts for thornier riddles allows developers to link modular ActionScript pieces together to create rock-solid solutions for Flash applications. The ActionScript Cookbook is for people who say, "I understand everything in theory, but I don't know where to start in practice." This book is all about practice.
