ActionScript 2.0 :: "Key.isDown()" - Navigate Using The Left And Right Arrow Keys On Keyboard

I'm building up an image resize gallery, and I want to navigate using the left and right arrow keys on my keyboard. I've been trying to figure this out a while now, but I can't get it working. Here's my code:

I'm making a Flash presentation for a client which I will eventually publish as a Projector movie...All the animated slides are in individual scenes, but the individual scenes have several stop points.My client wants to be able to use the left and right arrow keys to skip backwards and forwards to these stop points. They also want to be able to press the spacebar at any point to stop and play the movie manually.

im currently trying to extend my flash video player with the option to pause the video and then use the left and right arrow keys to navigate forward and backwards frame by frame. I already figured out that I can only seek to keyframes and not every frame and that seeking always gets you to the closest keyframe automatically.
I couldnt find a method anywhere to seek to the next keyframe automatically and if I try to seek in small intervals I sometimes end up on the next frame like I intended but most of the time I get thrown back to the keyframe I started because it�s the closer one.

how to use the arrows keys in a flash movie to move the timeline. None of them help, or work (or at least I can't get them to work as advertised). Some of the solutions seem way to complicated for such a simple problem. I don't want to use AS3. What I need to do is to have the ability to move from frame 1 to frame to or from scene 1 to scene 2 in my flash movie. This is the code I have in frame 1 (there is no other code in the swf) -
stop();
myListener = new Object ();
myListener.onKeyDown = function (){
trace ("you pressed a key");
[Code]....
This code "works", by that I mean I can go from frame 1,2,3,4,5 just fine and back from frame 5,4,3,2,1 just fine. The problem is once I am back at frame 1 and want to go back to frame 2, I get to frame 3, going forward goes to frame 5 and going back ends in frame 1.

Here's my situation, I'm making a stick fighting game, where this stick figure fights others. I have the basic moves done inside a mc. I just tried to use Kirupa's tutorial on how to animate that bug with the keyboard arrow keys, but it didn't work. It moved the whole screen. All I want to do, is when you press the left or right arrow keys, the movements (the mc's name) move to the left/right. I attached the .fla. The basic controls are the left arrow animates it left, the right animates it right, and the enter key makes him punch.

i'm attempting to make a platform game, i know how to move left and right with the arrow keys, but that's quite boring. i want to move my character based only on the x movement of my mouse. the more i move my mouse in a certain direction, the faster the character moves in that direction. i've been trying to modify the x-speed on my character based on a x value of the mouse, but nothing is working.
preferably, i want a code that keeps my cursor at the center of the screen, while still being able to detect x movements of the mouse. i'd copy paste code from my program, but i'm fairly confident that doing so will serve no purpose. i need a new direction. i have no idea how to do this.

If I put the AWD keys inside an enterFrame they run until I push another button

I'm working on a game where movement is controlled with WASD, and other commands are controlled with YUIOHJKLNM<>. The problem I'm encountering occurs when pressing down certain combinations of three keys. For example, when I'm holding down J and M, the ASD keys won't work; only W will. The same applies to J and N, and K and <; W is the only key of the movement commands that will work.
There is nothing in my programming that I can see or find that is causing this error; I've performed several tests and managed to pretty much isolate the problem being something to do with the keycodes. Does actionscript 2.0 have some inherent issues with certain 3-key combinations being pressed?

The objective is to get the fox - by using the arrow keys - to move around on the stage and when he touches a duck the duck should disappear of the stage. The duck has a motion tween on it, to make it fly.Also if the fox touches one of the traps he should make a sound - using the redfox.wav sound in the library and disappear off the stage.I have this code on the actionscript timeline //Program to generate a set number of traps
//Declaring Variables var numOfTraps:Number; var movieWidth:Number; var movieHeight:Number; var counter:Number; //setting variables values for traps numOfTraps = 6 movieWidth = Stage.width; movieHeight = Stage.height; //Program to generate a set number of traps //Declaring Variables for (counter = 7; counter <= 13; counter++){ //Place 6 traps on the stage [code]....

I have a file set up with a movie clip moving from side to side by itself and when it reaches the end of the stage it goes back in the opposite direction.[code]I know want to control the movie clips movement with arrow keys, just left and right so that it would stop when it reaches the edge and will only let me move it the opposite direction.I guess I'm just trying to set up a sort of template.

For some reason, the down and right keys aren't working. They work fine in other programs but in this program they fail.
paddle_ybase = paddle._yscale;paddleSpeed = 0;
onEnterFrame = function(){
if(Key.isDown(Key.UP)){paddleA._y -= 1;}if(Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)){paddeA._y += 1;}
if(Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)){paddleA._x -= 1;}if(Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)){paddeA._x += 1;}
steam(7);paddle._rotation = paddleSpeed;
} function steam(num){for(i=0;i<num;i++) {

how do you move an object around with the arrow keys.
But there's a catch.
I need my object to flip horizontal when pressing right when it is facing left ( and vice versa). And I need it to flip vertical when it is facing facing upwards and the down arrow is pressed (and vice versa).

I am trying to create a four button system that is controlled using either your mouse or arrow keys.I need to create a Key Listener to allow the highlighting and selecting of each button . The arrow keys allow you to select button when you reach the last button it returns to the first button, and the enter key allows you to select the button.
