Flash
is an incredibly powerful program but I discovered quickly that it was
a difficult program to learn. Even if you are familiar with Adobe’s
layout and style, many attributes are unique to Flash and can be very
frustrating to learn without help.
If you don’t own a copy of Adobe Flash, you can download a free
one-month version from Adobe’s website. It’s a fully functional version
which is really nice because you can jump right in and find out what
the program can do

Flash Basics

HTML is ideal for
creating static websites where text and images are placed at fixed
positions.

But it doesn't really support dynamic
sites, where text, images, and animations are moving around on the
screen.

Traditionally, these effects were
achieved with animated GIF images or java applets.

---

Before we move on to concrete examples
of Flash movies, we will compare Flash to both animated GIFs and java
applets.

TUTORIALS

Page Building

• All webpages are based on the simple HTML
  coding language. If you're new to webdesign this is where you should
  start.
  
• Once you've learned about that, you might want to add some
  "intelligence" to your pages with JavaScript.
  
• After that, you're ready to build a huge site, using CSS
  which allows you to separate the content from the design.
  
• When you know all about CSS and JavaScript you can mix them into a
  combination we refer to as Dynamic HTML - or simply DHTML.
  
• Finally, you may reach a point where these predefined languages just
  aren't enough. This is where XML becomes relevant. It isn't a language but
  rather a system for defining other languages.
  

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^


Component Building

• You probably want to spice up your site with a few graphics. Check
  the tutorials on various graphics programs to learn how to create the
  coolest effects.
  
• Once you know all about cool effects with graphics programs, you
  need to make sure that your use of graphics is relevant. The various
  tutorials on design cover all important aspects - not from a
  program based approach - but from more of a psychological point of
  view.
  
• Flash
  is the leading program for creating fast loading animations that can
  turn your site into a completely unique experience.
  
• Finally you should check out our java
  tutorial. It will teach you to insert free
  java applets on your pages.
  If you prefer to program the applets yourself, check out the java programming tutorials.

Server Programming

• ASP (active server pages) is among the most
  popular tools on the Web that will let you connect your webpages with a
  database on the server.
  
• Cold Fusion is a server-side scripting language
  from Allaire. Its overall simplicity and tag based syntax make it easy
  to learn.
  
• PERL is a free scripting language that exists
  in an open atmosphere where many people share codes for free. There are
  thousands of code pieces out there for entire solutions such as
  guestbooks, message boards etc, just waiting for you to customize them
  and get them up and running.
  
• PHP is a server-side scripting language for
  creating dynamic web pages. You create pages with PHP and HTML. When a
  visitor opens the page, the server processes the PHP commands and then
  sends the results to the visitor's browser, just as with ASP or
  ColdFusion. Unlike ASP or ColdFusion, however, PHP is Open Source and
  cross platform.
  
• SSI - Server Side Include lets you write code
  pieces that are repeated throughout your site (for example a menu) in
  ONE place. Instead of having the same piece of code on 700 pages you
  simply add an SSI command in the HTML document and the server will
  include the linked code piece at exactly that point.
