Hi,
I am creating a flash piece where the user can choose the colors of each part of their shoe design and order what they pick. So first I set up the shoe as separate buttons 1-6 so that the user must first select the section to show the corresponding movie clip of colors for that specific section (which consists of buttons).
The user scrolls over a the color to colorize that section. How would I code so that upon clicking on the color it will stay in that area?
Is there a way to code so that the user can press a button at the end which would be a kind of order form using the colors they picked for their shoe. Is there any type of coding that I can assign each button so that when the customer has built their shoe, they can hit a button which interprets their custom shoe and places their results via email or onto a server? For example, a number which would consist of always 111xyyyyyyyyyyzz. y numbers are the color numbers (each color will have a number) for each part of the shoe in order
Also, wanted to see if I was creating this the easiest way possible. - I was trying to create instances of the line of colors (which is a movie clip consisting of many buttons), so that I could easily colorize each section.
Is this possible?
Thanks in advance!

What you want to do is very possible. How are your actionscript skills or just general programming knowledge? The easiest way to do this would be via programming it.

The way i would do it is to make each part of the shoe an object with an attribute of colour choice. Then at the end the colour selected can be retreieved by accessing the value in the shoePart.selection attribute.

Sorry if thats little help but i'm real tired. If you like send me the images you're using and i'll try to make a mock up for you.
