Well I guess you're question about AS is already answered
It indeed means actionscript, its like any other coding language....The thing is that
AS2 was desigend for "simple" coding(no OS like thing:P) the AS3 is based on a different way of coding and can therfore code much more/ difficult. So AS2 is great for programming if you're not planning on getting into it, and spedning much money on learning the code. AS3 is great if you are a web developer, and want to code as much you can....
Im not at my home PC right now, so I can't show you some examples. But you might want to start making a XML-file. I don't know if you ever did it, or know how to. so I will give the basics...
XML can be made using just notepad, its used to organize files, to create a list of links to all the file you use....like a list of short cuts. The basic structure is as following,
Quote:
<image>
<link>http://..............</link>
<description>pic #1</description>
</image>
|
I open up a node(image), and then declare the sub nodes(link, description). this is to make the loading and displaying it easier. If necessary I will PM you a rar file with some examples....
PS: you have to save the notepad file as an .xml, so select "all types" when saving, and name it like "namehere.xml"...
