		<description>Yeah cool tut.
I would just like an explanation of what the code means.
It sucks just typing it into the actions panel, without knowing what I'm doing.</description>

		<description>Loved your tutorial. I am taking my first class in FLASH and feeling rather dense. I worked through your tutorial and did a copy/paste of your code as we are doing the 1 and 2 code the long way in class rather than writing code. Therefore, I missed something because my Flash movie just plays and plays. It isn't directed by the buttons. I know there is something I don't grasp, but working through this tutorial was fun and it gave me a better grasp of the concept. I love vector art and so I knew I would love FLASH.</description>

		<description>So I've already written to everyone once but the comment didn't post. Here's the summary version.


Al, technically you're right, but include them anyway. You and your users will thank you later when you get to more complex projects.

Judi, it's easier than what you might be thinking. If you still visit this tutorial and are interested in how it's done, visit my blog (blog.americanmonk.com) and I'll put something together for you.

Jeeva, it's generally not appropriate to ask that a periodical be your personal tutor, but there are plenty of other ways to educate yourself. I hope you have fun learning Flash.

parkster,

stop();
function buttonClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndStop(event.target.name);

hut.enabled = true;
lily.enabled = true;
paradise.enabled = true;
cone.enabled = true;

event.target.enabled = false;
}
hut.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClick);
lily.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClick);
paradise.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClick);
cone.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClick);

But it's best not to rely on copying and pasting from a tutorial. They're not perfect and you should make an attempt at learning the code. Copying and pasting turns you into a black box.


Rach, stop(); is the correct syntax. Please visit my blog (link above) if you're still getting errors.


Anybody else, visit my blog!


Layers, love you guys! Thanks so much!</description>

		<description>Hi there
Good tutorial. But isn't it worth having the code (eg. in step 7) as text so users can copy and paste. I know I'm lazy, but kirupa.com does this and it makes tutorials more user friendly.</description>

		<description>Actually, enabling the buttons allows the pointer to be seen.  Without this step, the pointer would not show there was a button on the screen.</description>
