Hi,

Would it be possible to create a FAQ section in the Flash forum where frequently asked questions regarding Flash are kept?  I don't really know of any Flash questions that are asked frequently but, I was thinking that harpua and I could moderate that section (I know quite a bit about Flash already but I'm still learning new stuff about it every day)
  Would this be a bad idea at all?

Welcome to the New Age

I can think of something: how to call JavaScript from Flash.

So I would post this:

Q. How do I call a JavaScript function from Flash?

A. Add a behavior using the behavior panel. Click "add behavior -> web -> Go to Web Page" and enter "javascript:yourFunction()" in the box, replacing yourFunction() with your function's name.

This does mean that I am volunteering to work with Ben on this. I think I could think up a few more frequently asked questions with some time.

Do you think you could take this back to your Flash forum now? Presumably your moderator can set up an FAQ for you. Or if not, come back here to request that moderators be allowed to create FAQs ;)

There are two secrets to success in this world:
1. Never tell everything you know

Why not ask in the flash forum if people are interested and talk to the moderator of the forum about making a FAQ rather than another un-needed thread in this forum.
