Foundation Actionscript for Flash 8
Kristian Besley, Sham Bhangal, David Powers - Collection Foundation
Résumé
ActionScript is the native scripting language of Flash. ActionScript knowledge is essential within the world of Flash design and development, as Flash remains a leading tool for cutting-edge interactive design and development.
ActionScript is what gives Flash its power, but with that power comes a certain level of complexity, which can be intimidating. This beginners book, significantly updated since the last edition, covers all of the basics of ActionScript using the latest version of Flash, Flash 8. The skills acquired by working through this book will enable you to move on to more advanced friends of ED books such as Foundation PHP 5 for Flash, Foundation ActionScript Animation or Foundation XML for Flash.
This book contains all you need to understand and make use of ActionScript, and to have some fun while learning. The Foundation series teaching style is ideal if you're a non-programmer who wants to learn Flash programming quickly and thoroughly. The authors teach the basics, and provide you an all-around proficiency in ActionScript, as well as Flash components within Flash 8. You'll gain the practical skills to build ActionScript based Flash projects, including making initial design decisions, structuring code, and testing. An ongoing case study means that by the end of the book, you'll have constructed a cutting-edge Flash site to showcase your newly learned skills.

L'auteur - David Powers
David Powers has been professionally involved with the electronic media for 30 years, mostly in radio and television. He was a BBC Tokyo correspondent in the late 1980s and early 1990s, but more recently has concentrated on Internet projects. He built his first web site in 1995, and was instantly hooked. Eventually, the sheer tedium of updating content convinced him there must be a better way. After a brief flirtation with ASP, he experimented with PHP, and found himself hooked yet again. Fluent in Japanese, David specializes in building Japanese-English bilingual web sites, writing about Japan, and translating Japanese (he has translated several plays). He is coauthor of Foundation Dreamweaver MX 2004 (friends of ED, 2004), and has worked as technical reviewer on a number of web-related titles for the Apress group.
