Finally...

[sunlis]

I've finally upgraded to CS3. :)
I don't generally have that much money just lying around. I had to save hard-core, because I'm still in school, so this is big news for me!

And the best part is: No more having to ask people to "Save As Flash 8" for me! :D


So, what are the major differences between AS2.0 and AS3.0? Some new functions or something?

Congratulations sunlis! I am still on Flash 8 (thus still have the Save As issue ;-)

Major Differences - Complete Rewrite.

ActionScript 2.0 Migration to AS3 (good resource)

ActionScript 3.0 In June 2006, ActionScript 3.0 debuted with Adobe Flex 2.0 and its corresponding player, Flash Player 9. ActionScript 3.0 was a fundamental restructuring of the language, so much so that it uses an entirely different virtual machine. Flash Player 9 contains two virtual machines, AVM1 for code written in ActionScript 1.0 and 2.0, and AVM2 for content written in ActionScript 3.0. ActionScript 3.0 provides not only a significant enhancement in performance, but also a more robust programming model that lends itself to complex Rich Internet Application development.
