I was doing that too... making a quiz thing that asked what the periodic symbol of Oxygen was.

Were you using ActionScript 2 or 3?

THAT

You're using the same book I am, aren't you? Project Builder 2, Chapter 9?

I'm using 2.0.

Night Fury

Heh, that's weird. =P

I'm not sure what the book is; the teacher has the book and either puts the instructions on paper, or we all do it together.

But anyway, you can put this on a submit button:

on (release) {
    if (answer == "O") {
        gotoAndPlay(2);
    } else {
        gotoAndPlay(3);
    }
}

That's assuming you have a stop action in the frames you're going to. Change the "answer" to whatever your variable's name is. You can also replace the two and three with any frame labels that you have.

Having Auto Kern on with the input text box also seems to turn the information from the variable into HTML for some reason, so that can't be on.

-Zik

Ziko you have no idea what that means to me

Thanks a ton man. Are you taking, perchance, an online Flash class that involves this stuff?

Night Fury

No, it's a class at school.

-Zik

Hm my problems in actionscript usually involve trying to script for a button when I have not selected a button....

Ok. Just wondering. Because the class I'm learning this is in is online, and since you're in Colorado I was wondering... so yeah.

I don't seem to have that problem XD

Night Fury

You want hard? Try C++ coding. That'll have you reeling for weeks.

No thank you. HTML and actionscript fufills my headache quota for life.

Not to sound incompetent, but what is actionscript?

ActionScript is a coding language used in the program Flash. You can command objects to move or change with interactivity and program buttons to do certain commands.

Night Fury

Okay, what is flash and could you find a good tutorial covering that.

Flash? Adobe Flash? The program that designs most every online game on the internet?

And no, Flash is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyy too complicated for a tutorial.

Night Fury

Ok, how about a pamphlet (HTTYD refernce).

What do you mean? Just about Flash?

Night Fury

Ok. Just wondering. Because the class I'm learning this is in is online, and since you're in Colorado I was wondering... so yeah.

 

I don't seem to have that problem XD

 

Night Fury

Were you talking to me? I live in Washington.....

No, I was talking to Ziko

Night Fury

Ok just checking, I was going kinda crazy cause I was trying to figure out if I ever said anything about living in Colorado.

Ok, how about a pamphlet (HTTYD refernce).

You're not supposed to point out your own references.

It's off a scene in HTTYD that wouldn't have made sense... hardly does now even. Hiccup is asking Gobber, his mentor, why there isn't anything in the Dragon book for Night Furies. So at one point he asks "So is there like another book, maybe a Night Fury pamphlet..."
