Book Overview:

Macromedia Flash is the industry standard for creating high-impact, interactive Web sites. Flash-enhanced Web sites are everywhere, as more Web designers choose Flash to create navigation bars, musical tracks, animations, ads, technical illustrations, and sophisticated graphics, and Flash-playback capabilities are incorporated into the platforms of many important vendors, such as IBM, @Home, Sun Microsystems, Microsoft, and Apple. Powerful new features in version X include an improved menu system and added widgets, or menu designs, which make it easier to add functions such as tabs, links, and pop-up boxes to Web pages. With Flash X for Windows and Macintosh: Visual QuickStart Guide, readers are introduced to the basics of vector animation using both frame-by-frame and tweening techniques. They also learn to create sophisticated interaction and transition effects. Using this guide, professional designers and hobbyists alike can make their Web sites come alive without having to learn complicated scripting languages.
