i know im starting to get annoying, but i really need to get my page done 🙂
ok, how would i create an effect so that when a user clicks a button, the page scrolls off the screen while a new one comes in? would i create the page at like its width+the page width? would i have to create a whole different page for difference screen resolutions? (because my page takes up the whole width of the screen using the chromeless window script)

ok, so how would i create the scrolling effect? would i like subtract the screenwidth from the pagewidth and then use that as a gap on both sides? my fla is at:

I want to scroll the content off the screen, and then bring in some other stuff (pretty much the same thing, but a little different content) if you click on some of the buttons, u’ll see it scrolls the red thing. kinda like a filmstrip, scrolling through… I want to have the same effect, except the red thing (selector) is what is behind the mask (content mask)

its just the draggable blue box is selector (the red thing that goes over the text), and the number boxes are the content thingy.

There’s a scrolling menu tutorial on this site. THe source is missing and the method sucks but it’s there 🙂 I’ll try and update it.

There is the Kirupa tutorial using the button method instead of the sliding method 🙂
