Good luck with it!!

It is fun to edit, seriously. I have been playing with it for a while now and I came up with some cool effects, unfortunately, none of those cool effects actually allow the text to come back and form text again…lol.

Although I did form it once so that when it comes back, it looksl ike an ocean wave… it was way cool, but since the text started off still, it looked really stupid to have it wave after the explosion.

That’s it. I officially hate js, xml, asp and jsp. And I’d like to see that wave, Lost 🙂

Ok, I will see if I can redo it :-, I didn’t save it, but I think I remember what I did.

It is a jittery wave, its not that smooth, but I thought it looked somewhat cool.

I don’t like extreme javascript coding, it is too tedious for me.

Hrmm, this is the best I could recreate the wave effect I did. The original was smoother, but I think this one is cool too, its not much different, just jerkier.

That’s nice 😛

And I hope that window.open returns a reference to the window you’ve just created, otherwise I’m screwed. Well, maybe you can tell me: do you know how to open a window and write something in that window with js?

pom :-\

Hrmmm, untested, but I think this should work…

```php
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="javascript">
<!--
function popup(){
window.open ("", "testWin", "width=400,height=400").document.write("this is text")
}
-->
</SCRIPT>

```

Put that between the head tags…

```php
<A HREF="java**script:popup()">Open Window</A>

```

That will be your link.

That’s more or less what I did… More or less. Man there were some tricky questions, but I think I did all right. :beam:

That’s awesome !!!

Mind if I ask what some of the other questions were?

Well, concerning the js, it was pretty much it. You had to create a class “student” with attributes and a custom method display. When you get to the page, you must have those message boxes asking you to give a name, age… You instanciate a student with the data, and then you use the display method to open a new window and display the characteristics of the student. It sounds more difficult than it actually is 🙂

There was a dumbass XML part, one about Servlets that I totally skipped :beam: and a few basic things about Java (and a VERY tricky question about Java too).

Those tests sound really cool (yet overly challenging). I hope you did well on them.

You need to create a movie clip symbol. And then in the library you need to right click it and choose “linkage”. Then check the box for “Export to Actionscript”, and give it the name “cell” (no quotes).

The script relies on an attachMovie command. You can delete the clip from the stage so no clips are present from the state, because the script pulls them all right out of the library.

Ok because all I did was make a MC and gave it an instance of “cell”. When that didn’t work I but a little black square in it. Thanks LIB

Ermmm. I have had no problems with it crashing flash…

Did you change anything in the original script? Re-copy and paste the original code and try again.
