Excellent Actionscript 3.0 study book, 2009-06-25
Reviewer rating:
This book is just the right pace to learn actionscript 3.0.
It takes you through the code step by step with explanations all the way. Not like other books that tell you what to write down without telling you why.
There are a few mistakes in the book and the software examples but I found those errors actually helped me understand the code better. Had it not been for the author explaining all the way, I would not have been able to troubleshoot. It did not take me long to find the mistakes due to the explanations in the book and by the time I had found the mistakes, I knew the code thoroughly.
I also have tried reading a lot of other actionscript books and either it was too little information or too much. Both ways I was getting thoroughly confused. After this book, a much more advanced book "essential Actionscript 3.0" now seems very easy to grasp.
I highly recommend this book.

CD Files are corrupt, 2009-06-25
Reviewer rating:
FYI...once you get to chapter 7 the tutorial files no longer open. We purchased several copies of the book for our graphic department at work and none of the CDs work after Chapter 7. Very discouraging!
Pretty good for non-programmers, 2009-05-28
Reviewer rating:
Flash action script is heavy duty complicated especially for a non-programmer. I like how this book breaks it down with actual lessons that you perform using the DVD step by step.
Okay but problems and only in chapter 2, 2009-05-01
Reviewer rating:
I rated this a 3 at first because of issues with the first couple of chapters. As I've gotten further I am finding some good stuff. I would now give it a 4.
