Basic gotoAndPlay

Wanna make a newspaper? A test login?

Convert your symbol to a button

Make sure flash is on expert mode

Put in gotoAndPlay(frameNum)

Create frame w/ designs

Those are basic codes

gotoAndPlay is just one line of code, it's generally over used by most people on here it seems.

In general you only need a frame, when the page changes completely. Newspapers could be made on with just two frames, one for the main page and then one for the next frame, then every subsequent page would be on the same frame, with just changing the text in the text box.

It can result in 5 lines of coding like my playlist such as

on (release) {
gotoAndPlay(frameNum)
}

I use gotoAndPlay(random)

I use:
on (release) {
nextFrame();
}

I tend not to use GotoAndPlay much at all.

I prefer just to do stuff like my_mc._visible = false for movieclips as most of them make sense to be on the same frame.

I don't know how to put them in the same frame. In the login when your cursor in on the "START" button, it changes color. The two START button are n different frames. I don't know how to put them in the same frame.
