Hi,
This is most known function to any one use flash action script.
If you want to store a value for the entire website then we can use the _global variable where it can holed any type of data.

we can assign a value with the prefix _global.
where this will create a variable for the whole flash so that you can use this value where ever you want after declare or assign a value.

Emberd font in flash 8

Hi,
In this I like to say the steps how to embed a font in flash.

I flash putting a font for a static text is more simple... Just specify the particular font it will work fine but in this i like to say how we can specify for a dynamic text.

For dynamic text...

• Create the text field and set the property of the text to dynamic.
• In the font field specify the font you want to embed and in then you can find a embed button just click that and specify All
• In case of you want only specific character you can avoid All and select the corresponding selection like uppercase or/and lowercase or/and Number or/and punctuation etc...

Note 1 : If you specify All the file size use to get bigger since it embed all the character so if you thing it is going to have only upper or lower or Number just apply only that so that flash will not embed all the character set.
Note 2 : The same thing is also applicable for the text with input property...

Get back to you soon with more hints and tips....

Difference between _root and _parent

Hi,
This is my first post....
Let me start with what is the difference between _root and _parent in flash....
This will be useful for the person who likes to goto flash Action script who knows flash...

Both _root and _parent can be used for referring a object in action script.

_root
is used for referring the top most level of object.
for example
if you creat a movie clip called mc_one and mc_two inside mc_one then the _root refer outside the mc_one. that is the first level of the object.
_root -> mc_one -> mc_two
note : if you load a movie clip inside another flash file then the loading movie clip will not be considered as the _root instead of that the main movie clip will be considered as the _root
for example
take the previous example (_root ->mc_one -> mc_two) is loaded in another file then the loaded file will not have _root only the main file witch loading will have _root
_root->loading_mc->mc_one->mc_two

_parent
This is used to go to one step backwards.
for example
consider the same example _root -> mc_one -> mc_two
and wright the script in mc_two it will refer to mc_one
and if we want to refer to more upper level we can use _parent._parent

Conclusion
so it will be better to use _parent since even if you make multiple level of file and made it to link from another file it will not affect the separate file...

Hope it will be helpfull for action script beginners
