Hi kirupa community,
I am a new Flash AS3.0 learner and I need some help visualizing and applying some ideas of AS3.0 for a project I’m working on.
I’ve .zip’d the shell up and uploaded it to mediafire.com.

I’ve tried a lot of different things to get this to work, but every time something fails, I feel like I’m making more and more eventListeners, and it’s getting repetitive.
The idea with the Book > section, is that I want for there to be some dynamic .txt files being pulled in (so my partners can make changes without knowing anything) and they are broken up into sections. In between each section is a video that I tried to insert.
So essentially what I am trying to do at the moment is as the user clicks on the left nav bar, they can navigate between Chapter One/Two/Three etc, and once within the chapters, the[<<] [>>] button will navigate them between the pages (where sometimes the page will be a video instead of dynamic text load).
I’ve kind of given up in the middle of a thought, so some instances are still not defined.
My idea is that I could make each chapter a movie clip, within the movie clip have different frames for the different sections (everytime user presses < or > it will advance one frame), and then so I’d have 7 different movie clips, one for each chapter, each consisting of like 5-10 frames.
Is that conceptually sound, or is there a much easier way to do this?
Please feel free to show me how my code can be simplified. I think I have way too much garbage actions.
Please be kind to me, this is my first project!
Thanks!
