Javascript and dhtml into flash

hi |

i’m trying to translate some very cool experiments done in javascript and dhtml into flash.

a guy i work with put these together and although i’ve got a good basic knowledge of programming, his stuff is just beyond me and i’m looking for someone to help me understand his code and translate it to flash. i really want to learn from this.

the experiments can be found at:

http://www.cowboyscripts.org/javascript/mousetrails.html

he said that besides some code that’s specific to dhtml the code he has can be translated almost verbatim into flash.

i’m attaching my initial .fla with the code i brought over. i thought it might be a good place for me to start. it’s not much but i’m taking small steps.

you can view his javascript/dhtml code on the url listed above.

i’m really looking forward to working thru this and understanding it and hopefully learning a lot. that’s my end goal.

any help will be greatly appreciated. plus, i thought it might be fun for some people to check out what this guy is doing. he is a very talented developer.
