Zooming in and out a swf using AS or anything

Hey I was just working on trying to zoom a flash movie using JS but cant seem to get it and it is driving me nuts any of you guys know how I can zoom in and out on a movie using action script. I know I asked 2 questions in a row please forgive me.

the only way that i know how to zoom is by using the ‘_xscale’ and ‘_yscale’.

e.g.

<hr>
_root.someObject._xscale = 300
<hr>

or something like that.

if anyone else knows a better way i would love to know as well

Yep. You can try that code on your object:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
   this._xscale+=5;
   this._yscale+=5;
}

pom :asian:
