  1. Cool, stick with it. Programming is definately an art as much as a science. It's a wonderfully rich and varied area of study. I code for aliving using C,C++,C#,Flash,php,OpenGL,Durect X,DHTML etc They're all great fun and varied in their styles and capabilities. You'll be starting on a learning curve that will last decades. The main thing to know is the following: Whatever languages you learn, they will all have the same features (broadly speaking): Variables, functions, classes, ways of drawing graphics etc Learn to program algorithms well - the languages are easy to pick up.

    Learning Php

    Definately learn not from a book but from online tutorials and from hands on programming.Get yourself some webspace (use Tarp17!) and upload a simple php file, just calling phpInfo say. Then browse to that webpage and see the results.Like most things in life, there is no substitute for hands-on learning.I started and still develop php in WordPad. There are of course PHP editors out there with intellisense and pre-emptive code completion but really a simple text editor is the best for making you learn the lagunage thoroughly - and it needn't take long at all.There are so many excellent online tutorials for php. Like any programming related topic, the nature of the subject matter lends itself to the medium of the internet when it comes to finding information.

    Net ?

    Is .NET a good idea? It totally depends on your application. For running a realtime system like a nuclear power plant? No. .NET is slower than non .NET counterparts. .NET runs on a virtual machine like java. Code is compiled to Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL). This code is then compiled and executed on the target machine at runtime. So it's going to be slower. Also .NET languages are less secure - reverse engineering .NET code (which has not been obfuscated) is pretty trivial. So much rich information remains in the MSIL code regarding code structure and data structures etc. You can obfuscate this of course, but that only adds a level of annoyance to any hacker. BUT, .NET is a wonderfully rich language. Code is FAST to develop - the managed side of things means that you can "new" away to your hearts content any never worry about freeing the memory back. So, basically, if you need speed at all costs or as highly secure code as you can make - don't use .NET otherwise - use it.
  4. This is the solution to your problem and the way to do it in the newest Flash - Global Variables This will give you the ability to add global variables and objects that you can access from anywhere in your AS code.
  5. Sandisk 4GB Sandisk Excellent stick. Retractable connector is really good - keeps it safe. First thing you should do of course is remove the U3 technology - U3 Mitch.
  6. Came across this research recently and I think the results are very impressive: Video Research The hightened resolution and HDR exmaples are cool, but the object removal stuff is excellent. You simply can't beleive what you watch anymore. Mitch.
