Summary: Simple Explanations: Bad Examples
Comment: I finally decided to start programming in Flash MX as there are so many places that want this type of experience. Well, I read through the first chapter and it seemed very easy to understand. I got to chapter 2 and tried the first script....it did not work. I had exactly what the book had..it did not work. I loaded the Final example from the CD...that did not work either. How is someone supposed to learn something like programming if they have to troubleshoot the authors code themselves before they even know what the code is supposed to do?
As of right now, the book is closed and probably will not be opened again. Since the CD is opened I can't return it to the store and ther is no way I am going to sell it as I do not want to have someone be in the same boat that I am.
My recommendation is to do some online tutorials first as they are free, then when you have a decent handle, get a book that goes more into depth. Once you learn a little scripting, you should be able to catch and troubleshoot mistakes made by pros.

Summary: Waste of time
Comment: I totally agree with Daniel and Miguel. You learn pratically nothing with this book. You only be more confused.
Rating: 1
Summary: Errors in syntax and coding
Comment: I agree with Miguel. This is not a good book to get started in ActionScript. There are too many explanations with holes in them that make the whole learning process even more difficult and confusing experience. Too many typos and half harted tutorials. Do not waste your money.
