Webmaster Forum / Flash / Flash Site Design / March 2004

Hi,

I'm creating a flash website. I've come across many problems because I'm like
some...first-time user on this. Alright, I'm stuck right now with 2 problems:

1. I've been trying to add navigation ability to the creation but I'm really
stuck on it. I've tried writing scripts for the navication with several "do,
while;" "if, else;" and just plain pre-installed action scripts on the program
and they dont seem to work. The "if, else" got a me a lil far but after a while
everything just started getting mixed up in the navigation. For example, in
frame 2, I assigned the home button to go back 1 frame (- 1) but it got mixed
up somehow. From that frame, the home button might take you to frame 5 or
something. The way I am creating the website, I do not want it to rely solely
on webpages, I want it to be like a flash presentation on the web; therefore,
no blank screen loading from page to page. So each page is actually a frame. I
really need help with how to give the buttons the correct functionality. Please
help.

2. The other problem is quite stupid. You would probably think I'm really slow
for asking this but, how do you create scroll bars? I mean custom made... not
downloaded or UI type of stuff. I wanna make mine for the site. Please help.

Thanks guys...and girls if there are any here...you guys ever noticed how we
programming nerds are always guys? Judt a stupid question...A true nerd
speaking here.

Thanks for reading this... please reply.
