If you want to learn the JS on your own you can go to javascriptmall.com. It all has to do with strings and loops I think. It's rather complicated, at least at first. I can't do it on my own yet. I don't know about you. aspnetguy is right though, you shouldn't use marquee because of it's deprecation. If I were you i'd get into xhtml and use that from now on coupled with JavaScript.

<marquee direction="up">Text</marquee>I don't know about the transparency thing. Also, for a lot of extra things like marquees and things, go to draac.com.

So what did I do wrong? Thanks for fixing it but I also want to know what I missed so that I can take note of it. Sorry, it's just that i'm making a newb tutorial for my junior class since I am the only one to know this stuff and so I figure if I make a mistake in some way, it's worth noting because they probably will too.

Well first off you will need to know a little actionsscript. Here is what I can help you with. In the very last fame of you movie make a keyframe and make sure it (the keyframe) is selected. Open the actions panel (F9) and input the following code.getURL(http://www.webpagenamehere.com)This code makes it that so when the movie hits the last frame, it automatically loads up your web page.of course replacing the webpagenamehere part with the web address you want to load. Now you are done with the actionscript. To actually get the flash movie into the web page and make it your index you will need to finish the movie and then export it (file - export - movie). Once that is done, you will need to publish it. To do this do file - publish. This will give you the HTML file to use as your index page. Make sure you upload both the html and the swf (movie again) files into your database and of course make sure the html file is name index.html or index.htm, making it the default page so that when someone types in you web address they are taken to your flash movie. You don't need the actual fla. file (Fla just means a flash document.)

OK I don't quite know if you mean downloading a font and using it in flash or making your own font. I don't know about making your own, but if you know where to download the font download it and it will give you a zip file. I'm assuming you are using a windows operating system. Go to the zip file you downloaded and right click on it, choose EXTRACT ALL and an extraction wizard will pop up or somehting of that kind. After you hit OK it will give you a screen where you can choose where to extract the files and put them. Click browse and choose local drive (c drive, it's your hard drive) and clcik on Windows in the list, now click on fonts and hit ok. The files will be extracted and next time you open Flash you should see the font in the list unless you downloaded a bad zip. Also, you can't ever really add fonts to a PROGRAM, because programs generally derive their font list from your hard drive. So if you want a new font for it, just get the font into your hard drive as described above. If you have problems with this just e-mail me and i'll try to give you a better explenation.

You'll likely need a converter. I don't think there is any way to convert it without one unless you can get the frames from the original piece into the flash frames and then export it as a movie. I don't think you can do that though. Also, you can find converters all over the place for free or you can get free 30 day trials. Also, I would suggest you go to flashkit.com and try some of those tutorials and forums, since it is an entirely flash oriented site. What version of Flash are you using? 8 or MX 2004 maybe?

What's wrong with this code? I'm trying to get re aquainted with JavaScript after a long break and I can't figure out what is wrong with this code. All I get is a blank page when I open it.<html><head><title>Grade Script</title><script Language="JavaScript"><!--function getGrade(name, grade){ var letterGrade if(grade >= 90){ letterGrade = "A" } if(grade <= 89 && >=80){ lettergrade = "B" } if(grade <= 79 && >=70){ lettergrade = "C" } if(grade <= 69 && >=60){ lettergrade = "D" } if(grade < 60){ lettergrade = "Loser" } document.write(name + "-" + letterGrade + " (" + grade +")<BR>")}//--></SCRIPT></head><body><script Language="JavaScript"><!--getGrade("Maria", "76")getGrade("Jared", "78")getGrade("Carrol", "87")getGrade("Arnold", "86")getGrade("Derrick", "65")getGrade("Aricia", "87")getGrade("Janice", "56")getGrade("Chris", "93")getGrade("Sammy", "64")//--></SCRIPT></body>
