This document provides an overview of ActionScript syntax, information on how to use ActionScript when working with different types of objects, and details on the syntax and usage of every language element. Start by learning the terminology and basic concepts used in the rest of the document (see ActionScript Basics). Next, learn the mechanics of writing and debugging Flash scripts (see Writing and Debugging Scripts).
Before writing your own scripts, you should complete the lessons "Write Scripts with ActionScript" and "Create a Form with Conditional Logic and Send Data," which provide a hands-on introduction to working with ActionScript. To find these lessons, select Help > How Do I > Quick Tasks.
After you understand the basics, you are ready to use the information in the rest of this document as it applies to the specific effect you are trying to achieve. For example, if you want to learn how to write a script that performs a certain action when a user clicks the mouse, see Handling Events.
When you find information about a certain command you want to use, you can look up its entry in ActionScript Dictionary Overview; every language element is listed there in alphabetical order.
