So I was looking for a good ActionScript 2 book on Amazon when I noticed this book [http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0321394151/qid=1138266789/sr=1-5/ref=sr\_1\_3\_5/026-0755677-5870843](http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0321394151/qid=1138266789/sr=1-5/ref=sr_1_3_5/026-0755677-5870843) and scrolled down to read this review > [@reviewer](#): > > I discovered this book is availiable as a PDF from the [www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flash/](http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flash/) web site! Choose the ActionScript TAB half way down the page and choose the first PDF shown which is called fl8\_learning\_as2.pdf So I quickly ran over to the Macromedia/Adobe site and sure enough, this book can be found as a pdf here [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flash/](http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flash/) follow the guys instructions to get the actionscript one, Actionscript 2 reference is on the same page and then explore the tabs you’ll find others including Flash 8 Tutorials and Flash 8 using components suprising that Adobe/Macromedia would take pdf’s they’re giving away for free, stick them in a cover and then sell them to you…weird Is this something they’ve always done and I’ve just missed it?
