As a professional web designer you want to use ActionScript to add interactivity to your Flash creations. But previous books on ActionScript have assumed you have a programming background, leaving out key details in order to cover a lot of ground. In the process many designers and other professionals new to programming have been left behind.
Flash MX ActionScript: The Designer′s Edge fills these gaps, using a consistently visual approach that emphasizes conceptual illustrations and color charts. These are complemented by interactive tutorials on the book′s companion website. Best–selling author J. Scott Hamlin and multimedia instructor Jennifer S. Hall make everything from fundamentals to high–end techniques accessible by truly teaching you how ActionScript works, not just presenting code.
Key topics you′ll learn about include:
∗ The Flash MX interface to ActionScript
∗ Programming mouse interactivity
∗ Writing and reusing ActionScript
∗ Coding core animation techniques
∗ Working with text fields
∗ Doing the math: Creating curving paths with trig functions
∗ Handling object collisions and other gaming techniques
∗ ActionScript drawing techniques
∗ Encapsulating reusable code with ActionScript components
∗ Debugging and troubleshooting your ActionScript

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
