What FlashMX can & cannot do.

I have an idea for a FlashMX application (I say MX, because I'm not sure if older versions of flash can handle the task). I'll be creating an interactive cartoon game where the user will have to enter in data and Flash will have to determine A) If this value is true go to this scene B) Else, go to another scene. When I say enter data, I mean in some sort of "form" box.

Is this possible? Can older versions of Flash handle this? If so, any helpful links?

Thank you in advance.

Flash should be able to do so, via Actionscript. I think Cybling or Pank is better off answering this :p

Oops. I'm in the wrong message board. Let me switch to the Flash board.

Merged and moved, don't really have to repost actually. Just request for it to move

yes flash can do this. im not exactly clear on what u want done, but cant u just like do
if (condition) {
gotoAndPlay(frame);
}
else {
gotoAndPlay(frame);
}

i dunno this sounds kinda weird, u might have to use arrays. maybe im not clear on ur question all the way

shouldn't be a prob for flash to do this at all, just a bit of code required (slayerment's little idea there is in the right ballpark). check the tutorial i wrote in the flash section here for a bit about working with variables (written for flash 4 so the syntax has changed). i actually haven't done much with forms and input, but a search on flashkit should turn up some more help.

yes flash can do this

agree'd

Flash MX can do alot more than what you've asked

But if i were to compare flash mx to flash 5 its really not THAT much different
