Just ordered it.

I know there are a ton of AS masters around, and am wondering if you ever used this book, did it help?

Thanks

I can't wait until I get it... my AS up until now has been half assed and improper.

hi,

yes, you've just ordered the book!!

after reading the first, I read that one as well. It teachs and covers everything you need.

can't wait to see as2e (http://moock.org/as2e/) shipping!, as it covers AS 2.0 for MX 2004

yeah its a great book, covers alot of things in depth and really explains them rather than just showing you code and tutorials on how to do particular things. a great book. btw did you get the second edition?

I was halfway through his Flash 5 book, and then I upgraded to MX04 about a month and a half ago...the MX version of his book came in the mail from amazon last week....great reading!!!

Hi,

I guess easing would be Mr Penner's area of expertise. He got his own book. Never read it though.

I never read any book about Flash or AS either. You can learn it all online (here ;)).
