The subject pretty much explains it all. I start on frame one of a MovieClip with just a Bitmap covering the whole stage. Then when a user clicks a button, it goes to frame two and a vector shape is on the stage covering part of the image. At the same time, through code, I place an input Textfield on the stage.

In fact it returns 'object' for both typeof() expressions because thats the way Actionscript works. I couldn't seem to find an alternative by looking in t...
I need to create a wizard for a Flash 9/ActionScript 3.0 application. The wizard would be a set of dialogs/windows for each step and the buttons "back/next/cancel" for navigation through the wizard.

I ran across Tour de Flex a couple days ago. It's a demo that showcases all the Flex controls, with cross-references to source and references. It's a great way to get an idea of the resources available, and how to use them. Not a question, but a useful resource since I've seen a number of Flex/Actionscript questions here. (Note that I'...
