Foundation ActionScript for Macromedia Flash MX 2004

Foundation ActionScript for Macromedia Flash MX 2004

by ShamBhangal (Author)

Synopsis

* Practically orientated, and assumes no previous knowledge of coding, making sure that the reader can actually use ActionScript to build a working website via real and detailed examples and case studies.

* Previous best seller-successful writing style and tone from an author that has proved to be popular with readers of previous editions. In fact, this is the middle book in an integrated three-book Flash series from Beginner to Advanced, all written/co-written by the same author (Foundation Flash, Foundation ActionScript, and the Designer's ActionScript Reference) - no other publisher provides this sort of unbroken coverage from a single voice.

* Covers both Flash MX 2004 and Flash MX Professional 2004.
