[Flashcoders] What native events do (AS2, but not V2) components implement?

Hi guys, This is always really hard to find information about, so I wanted to ask the list. Which events do AS2 components automatically have? I'm not talking about V2 components, I'm referring to components created from scratch in AS2. For example, there are functions like "onResize", which seem

Well, a couple of reasons. I mean you can, it's possible, but the reason for container clips is so you have the ability to load more than one clip. If you load into _root, everything in that movie clip will be replaced by the new clip you are loading in, and if you try and load a second clip in
