Hey all!
Im new to actionscript, and I am trying to make a volume controller.
I want to make it like so:
Theres an Input text box with the Var: “setvol”
Theres a button, which I didn’t give a name yet.
What I’m trying to do is if the text box (setvol) = 50, and if the button is released, then the volume should be at 50%.
Can anyone here PLEASE help me?
(btw: I already made the sound play in the background)
Thx
(I tried tuts on [Kirupa.com](http://Kirupa.com))
