Creating web designs and site content in Macromedia Flash MX can be a lot of fun, but there are always tasks that you’ll want to do again and again. It’s always a bit of a hassle to have to keep recreating and tweaking the same old content or functionality in different projects, so why can’t you just reuse what you’ve created? With components, you can do just that! Flash MX Components enable the creation of self-contained design building blocks that can be simply dragged and dropped into any Flash movie. They are flexible enough to be easily customized to take care of many different tasks. No fuss, no bother - you can repurpose the standard elements of your design, application, or game, and use them over and over again. But wait, it gets better! Components can be used by anyone, not just the person who created them. So in this book, we’ve done all the hard work for you and collected together the Most Wanted components that will make your life easier.
