Absolutely positively one of the best tutorials I have seen on functions. I learned more here than I did from an entire class on the subject.

wondering if it is possible to set the layer order of the image on the stage? ie… i have an image that takes up the whole stage and it is covering the text, so i want the image to be behind the text.

thanks,
jared

Thats odd, I copypasted the whole code and get this error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at start_fla::MainTimeline/onButton1Click()
at start_fla::MainTimeline/start_fla::frame1()
But its working fine.

I managed to get the buttons working like in the var tutorial.
I have that code under every button like this:
First I declared the var: var currentButton:MovieClip;
Then I added the following code beneath/under the button code:
if (currentButton) {
currentButton.alpha = 1;
currentButton.mouseEnabled = true;
}
currentButton = event.target as MovieClip;
trace (currentButton.name);
//output.appendText(event.target.name + “\n”);
//output.scrollV = output.maxScrollV;
event.target.alpha = 0.7;
event.target.mouseEnabled = false;
}

I got the double ‘/’ in front of the output code because that gave an error, I dont know why, and it works by turning them off.
Is this the right way?

BTW Great tuts, but I still dont get AS3 :s (maybe I do understand it better when it’s in Dutch (home language), no offense)
