a really good book that i have is “Flash MX Designer’s ActionScript Reference” and it’s by Sham Bhangal, Jhon Davey, Jen deHaan, Scott Mebberson, Tim Parker, and Glen Rhodes. It’s supposed to be an intermediate to advanced lavel but it teaches all the basics aswell and it has really good in depth explanations on every peice of actionscript in the book. it also comes with a CD with full flas that you can look at and experiment with. I highly recommend it.

Stick to [kirupa.com](http://kirupa.com) and try to understand the AS of the tut’s .flas…  
The experiments are great and highly educative… Check the actionscript forums too…
