Flash is case-sensitive. Looks like your NavToURL in your addEventListener
call should really be navToURL

I'm not entirely sure what error you're getting, but if I were to take a
wild guess, I'd say the problem is that your sprite doesn't have enough
children for you to add anything at index 2.
For instance, if your sprite only had 1 child, it would occupy index 0 of
your sprite, meaning you'd only
Hey, Flash Coders! Happy New Year!
Quick question for you guys: I work a lot with dynamic TextFields that I
design, format and lay out in the Flash CS3 authoring environment. The
problem I frequently run into is that when I go ahead and change the text of
these things in the code, most of the
letterSpacing) are always lost with defaultTextFormat so you always need
to
set it again. I always used something similar to your code.

It sounds like your array is full of button objects, but you're
searching for a string (the button name), and an object and a string
don't match.
Remove the .name from the key you're searching for, and I believe it
should work.

One element I can think of is to make sure your game is playable by
color-blind folks.
If you're making any kind of game where you have to match groups of
similarly-colored objects, for instance, make sure that there's a way to
tell these objects apart other than by color. (The gems in Bejeweled,

Hey, guys.
So at this point I feel like I've got a pretty good handle on AS3, but I'd
like to get some experience with more Flex-specific development. Is there a
favorite book that people have of the various ones that are out there?
Ideally, I'd like to find one that spends less time rehashing
x = Math.cos(angle) * radius
y = Math.sin(angle) * radius
Keep in mind the angle here needs to be in radians. If your angle is in
degrees, multiply it by 180 / Math.PI.
Also keep in mind the x and y values you get here will be relative to the
circle's center.

Hey, guys.
Anybody have any decent Lint-like tools that they've been using for
ActionScript? Google hasn't given me anything very useful, except the
recommendation that a Lint tool for JavaScript might work, which I'm kinda
skeptical about.

Hey, coders!
I have a Sprite that consists of a polygon that I drew in Flash (using the
line tool) and saved into my Library.
Using ActionScript, is there any way to easily find the points of said
polygon? It seems like I oughta be able to dig up those line coordinates out
of my Sprite.graphics
Hey, FlashCoders.
I'm wondering if you can help me out with a general style question that I
keep running into. Let's say I've got a setup like this...
class MyGame extends MovieClip
- It creates a camera sprite that I can add children into
- It then creates a Bouncing Ball object with the

Sounds like creating custom events is the way to go (and yes, it's for Send
an alert of some kind to MyGame kind of functionality). I don't have a lot
of experience with 'em, so I was probably going through more trouble to
avoid them than would actually be required to just suck

Also, if you try running your Flash file in debug mode (Hit
Ctrl-Shift-Enter), the debugger will take control at the moment when you're
trying to access a null object, which usually helps you

plane.y -= (plane.y-mouseY) / 6;

the hard part is getting the speedX and speedY to be numbers that
don't cause the map to fly to fast. Just not sure where to go from
here.

Well, I'm no plane game expert, but here's probably how I'd approach it...
Within your PlaneGame movie, create a child sprite called Camera.
Make all your interface stuff children of the PlaneGame movie. But make the
background, your plane, the enemies, etc, all children of this Camera child

You can try the ENABLE word list. It's open source, made for Scrabble-like

illegal words.

I think the Control-Shift-1 functionality is fairly new -- I only got it
