Yup, you can however send variable to and from javascript using actionscript. Dunno why but you can. Anyway, flash only used actionscript so you're better of just using a text processor like notepad for your javascript, unless you use taco, dreamweaver or something.

javascript is a programming language/script used only in websites. There are 3 main programming languages for sites:

html - basic layouts etc
CSS - styling/appearance
javascript - bevaviour

Javascript controls things like scroll menus and popup message boxes etc. Actionscript is a totally different thing.

ok thank you people for your help
