Flash/Dreamweaver help (quick question)

[Papercuts]

im working on designing a site for my own portfolio and wanted to know what to look for in the books I have for how this type of site is made: jKaczmarek -guys a good AD.

But I want to know what to read up on to be able to make the little things that interact on that site work for me.

Like is a site like this made with mostly flash? or dreamweaver? the way things move when you roll over them, and the way things load but never actually leave that page.

Any help....helps! Thanks in advance.

that whole site is a flash site.

read up on preloaders and functions if you want to try and write the actionscript yourself.

its probably pulling content in from an xml document also.

The site looks to be all made in flash.
-You would need to learn how to make preloaders.
-Learn and understand what movieclips are, what they can do, and learn how to control them (via actionscript).
-It would probably be a good idea to load the content dynamically somehow. (XML is one way)

I once had a flash coding problem i couldnt fix, went to sleep and literally codded the thing in my sleep. Woke up and fixed it... awesome.



Are all flash sites still OK? Should I redo mines in html?

I solve a lot of my coding problems in my sleep, more of like just before and just after sleep really.
