Subject: Flash assignment - Chapter 7 is prerequisite...

Hi 022 students,

   The Flash assignment is pretty much ready.  I will show you how to
improve the button on Friday, as well as how to do Masks and do twirling,
size changing, color changing text (see the special effect after all
of the fade in and fade out images have finished.

        links to:

        http://www.cs.uni.edu/~jacobson/snorgTees/SnorgTees.html

     and that page goes back to our c022.html page when it completes its
     intro animation, but if you do the

     SKIP INTRO button, it will take you to this page:

   Note:  Microsoft Internet Explorer has always had a problem with
             Flash movies, the .swf file is the name of the file
             for the published Flash movie.

          The first click of your mouse anywhere on the .swf Flash
             application ACTIVATES the .swf file, so the first click
             does NOT function as the

                 MouseEvent.CLICK     and is not HEARD by the

                      ----------------
             skip_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
                      ----------------

             button because it is NOT listening yet.

        Perhaps in another 5 years or so, Microsoft will get it
           figured out.  Anyway, if you are using some browsers or versions
           of internet explorer, you will have to click the button a 2nd
           time to see how it is supposed to work the first time.
