Completely new to Flash CS3, Photoshop CS4, Adobe Dreamweaver, but looking forward to learning about them.My question is this. I'm putting together a horse website and was going to use this templateQuestion 1.All I want to do is change the images to horse photos and change the layout of one of the pages.

Question 2:It states on some of this templates that the requirements for flash are Flash MX2004. Is this the same as Flash CS3. Can I use Flash CS3 for this

View 1 RepliesI know that to add a blue circle movie clip from the library the code would be:
var newCircle:BlueCircle = new BlueCircle(); this.addChild(newCircle); In my application I have several different movie clips (circles, squares, rectangles etc). Is there any way to make the "BlueCircle" part a variable? For example...
var theShape= BlueCircle;
var newShape:theShape = new theShape();
this.addChild(newShape);
haha. Even as I write that I know it's really wrong.

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to get a movie clip to automatically load up another external clip, after playing an embedded flv.
This is what I've tried so far:
var holdFrame = setInterval( holdFrame, 5000);
gotoAndPlay(
_root.mc_holder.loadMovie("swf/library.swf"));
clearInterval (holdFrame);
Although it throws no errors, the setInterval is ignored and it just loads direct into the next mc clip.
I want to load a random movie clip from the library to an empty clip on the stage called (bg_graphics). the clips in the library are called (green, blue, yellow).

Just upgraded to CS4/AS3, and I can't figure out how to load one .swf after another, llowing each to be run once, and only once. I don't think I should have to alter the target movies, as I should be ale to tell when the laoded movie is at it's last frame.So I have an string[] that holds the filenames of the target swfs to load.
