I’m not totaly new to this board and I’m not totaly new to Flash MX, but I never made a whole page in Flash. Until now I made all my pages in PS.  
The Problem I have is, that I don’t really get the ‘Whole Flash Tut’ from kirupa… sry ;p  
So I wanted to ask you guys, whether you have a really old and really ugly site for me, so that i can see how the scripting stuff works…

Here’s a tutorial on how to build a full flash site that’s a bit easier than the one on Kirupa.

The problem is that it’s for flash 5, but since you’re not new to flash then it shouldn’t be too hard for you to go through with it in MX. I hope it helps. =)

hey man, if you’re into html, just think iframes!

use a blank MC as an iframe in your movie 🙂

and use the loadmovie command to call in other swf’s into that MC (like iframes :))

Thanks for the good tip. It was a kind of hard to get that stuff working in Flash but i made it. I think i now got the main concept of Creating a Flash Site.  
Man, but those tut’s are so bad. You really have to remind me to write one when I got it…

I know, the other tuts here are really good so far ;p

But the tut for creating a full flash page are really complex…

Well Creating a full flash page is sort-a… complex anyways… 🙂

At least I think so… :beam:

_lmao_… Preloaders can be a pain in the \*\*\* at times…

Especcially if you’ve created your entire site at first…

I’d suggest spanking the monkey… 🙂

I mean… I’d suggest flogging the flagpole…

Errm… In all matters I’d say you’d have to just look around the tutorials they have here… Some cool ones can be found here… Or search the forums… People talk about preloaders like they are going to be nuked 😛

Actually… Learn how to do the flash stuff so you have something to load up.

If you just want to learn to make a Flash site, start off by making different scenes and going between them. Dont do loading swfs right away.

And for preloaders- just find a really simple one and use that. Look here:

```auto
totalb = _root.getBytesTotal();
loadedb = _root.getBytesLoaded();
if (loadedb == totalb) {
	_root.gotoAndPlay(3);
}

```

This is what I use on my sites. Easy!
