Unless you're a hardcore programmer, don't buy this one.

I'm new to programming and, while I had some difficulty understanding the concepts within this title, I would not recommend this to anyone that's less than an intermediate level programmer. As opposed to titles that take you through the entire process of creating a website start to finish, this mostly introduces new concepts that help to build on your knowledge of ActionScript 2.0.

If you're wishing to feel a sense of accomplishment after reading this title cover-to-cover, you will be sorely disappointed. The sample exercises show how key concepts can enhance your web site/applications/scripts, but there is no end result that allows you to sit back and feel that you've accomplished anything substantial.

Any newbie to Flash wishing to increase their knowledge of ActionScript 2.0 should first learn how to create their own fully functional website using some ActionScript before tackling this book.
