hello i’m new to flash ang hoping to create a flash interactive animation.

lately i’ve learned about set intervals.

i used it to create a simple animation where my object will fade in from 0% alpha to 70%. but i just don’t know how to do it. ive browsed around your forum but as of now in my present skill in AS. i can’t understand some of it. maybe some of you guys can help me.

here is my code.

function fader():Void {  
mcBilog.\_alpha++;  
updateAfterEvent;  
}

mcBilog.\_alpha = 0;

var nAnimate:Number = setInterval (fader, 10);

hope to here from you.tnx
