Anyone know where I can find a tutorial creating a Floating AS3 Flash banner? My understanding is that you have to use wmode and div layers, and I don’t know what those are? Do you have to use Javascript to open and close the banner? I thought you could use AS3 visible or load to do this?

I found this:  
Sliding flash ad over html content

I’m intermediate with AS3 and would prefer writing with AS3 vs AS2. Are we still only to use AS2 for web banners?

Thanks!
