I tried to put that code in my main timeline keyframe,.
and the input text is on the StatsMeny Clip,.

But once I use the myInt variable it seems that it's not working.,.
how could I fix it?

thanks!

Give the input textbox the instance name 'mys' and use this on the main timeline

StatsMenu.mys.onChanged=function(){
	myInt=Number(_root.StatsMenu.mys.text);
	trace(myInt)
}

Firefox
Opera
Safari etc....

IIRC, IE uses the OBJECT tags and Firefox uses the EMBED tags for parameters. So make sure your wmode="transparent" is in both the embed and object tags, eg:

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0" width="900" height="550">
    <param name="movie" value="Equilibrium_10.swf">
    <param name="quality" value="high">
    <param name="wmode" value="transparent">
    <embed src="Equilibrium_10.swf" width="900" height="550" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent"></embed>
  </object>

Not sure whether you added the parameter manually to the code, but if you select the swf in Design view in DW, you can add parameters using the Properties bar, which will automatically add them to both the object and embed tags

You can't change the mouse co-ordinates, no. You can change the position of an attached/created cursor, and use Mouse.hide() to get rid of the original cursor, but any changes you make to the new cursor position will not be reflected in the _xmouse and _ymouse values.

I'm experimenting on sleep system and got a problem on my MC,...
once you go to other frame and back to that frame, it feels like the intervals are getting faster,..

It sounds like the code setting up the interval is being run twice. The interval is set up on the root, not on the MC (although it's possible to assign it to the MC). Just add a clearInterval(ChangeW); at the top of the onClipEvent(load) to get rid of the previous interval before setting up the new one

Totally agree with this. Internet users too often forget or are unaware that what they type can have a direct effect on another user's life. The whole 'treat others as you'd like to be treated yourself' thing is probably at least as relevant online as IRL, despite the relative anonymity of the web.

You may well be right, but there's no harm in taking precautions in case you're not.

Haven't tried CS4 but CS3 should be more than adequate for your needs. Also, I'm sincerely hoping that wasn't a reference to pirating, which as you should know is a bannable offence

I've had a quick look through your recent post history and I don't see anything mentioned that would trigger someone to do something like this. Why do you feel it necessary to 'make them pay'? Are you talking about someone specifically?

Not really, you're taking the most logical approach. What specs does your PC have? Are you sure there's not a different program lagging your CPU (check task manager/CTRL ALT DEL)? Are you using code or tweens for the movement? Are you using large bitmap images, or vectors? Complicated text, lots of alpha layers?

Animation actually looks pretty cool to me, but it's clearly got a long way to go before it becomes a game. I don't see anything wrong with the artistry or FBF though, it's not lagging CPU so I'd say stick to the path you're on.
