Gradient Masks
|
|
Description:
|
A basic masking effect will have hard edges. If you wanted to apply alpha-transparency to the mask, it often involved tricks like created separate gradient shapes that blended with the background. In any case, it wasn't a truly transparent mask effect. After the introduction of Flash Player 8, it was possible to have an actual transparent mask. With some very simple actionscript code, you can turn any gradient shape into a mask for any other object.

Loading External Files with MovieClipLoader
|
|
Description:
|
While the loadMovie() action serves its purpose in most basic situations, there are times when you need something with a little more functionality. The MovieClipLoader class adds functions that let you accurately manipulate a loaded file as well as determine its progress or any loading problems that may occur. It also lets you define a set of actions in one declaration by using listeners that are handled by the Flash player.

Scrollbars for Dynamic Text
|
|
Description:
|
Probably one of the most highly used components on any web page, is the scrollbar. It's far too difficult to fit that much text onto a single page, and it's even harder to do so into the smaller areas SWiSH sites have to work with. So, instead of dividing a large body of text into multiple pages, you can put it into a dynamic text field and add your own scrollbar!

Simple Contact Form with PHP
|
|
Description:
|
Using the mailTo() function in SWiSH Max2 isn't always the best way to let your visitor's contact you. Some people do not have an email client on their computers. It is always much more convenient (for the user) to simply fill in a form on a website and hit the 'submit' button. This tutorial will show you how to create a basic contact form and send the information to an external script - in this case, PHP.
