Health Bar for ACTIONSCRIPT 3.0 HELP

[Snivvle]

How do you create a simple Health Bar for Actionscript 3.0? I have been searching for this for a while, and all I ever find are AS2 tutorials. AS2 dates back to about 900 B.C. ; it is an archaic language and it needs to be left alone, FOR GOOD.

Please, anybody?

Btw by Health Bar, I mean like an RPG Health Bar. You get hit for X amount of damage, and the Health Bar decreases.

NM I figured it out.. The problem I was having was with my MovieClip registration point. Wow that took like 30 minutes to figure out, haha. Booyah!

Of course, if you'd read those "archaic" AS2.0 tutorials more thoroughly, you would've realised this.
