Re: [Flashcoders] Book: Flash 8 reference?

[dbenman]

I've been using Oreilly's Safari service for many of these reference books to 
read them online instead of purchasing hard copies though several of these 
Actionscript books look like they'd make good bedtime reading.

 I just pick this book up a week ago and am about half way through it. I have 
 to give it two thumbs up! 
 
 http://www.amazon.com/Advanced-ActionScript-3-Design-Patterns/dp/0321426568/sr=1

 You can also get the ActionScript 3.0 Definitive Guide from as a download 
 from the publisher's web site. You can basically buy it now and download the 
 PDFs of the chapters as they get approved, then they will send you the book 
 when it is done. 
 
 But this is all ActionScript 3.0 stuff (but the design patterns book can be 
 applied to AS 2.0 as well).
