[Xerte] Drag & drop text / Carrying values between pages

The first section of the O'Reilly JavaScript book is great as an
introduction to the language and its syntax - the later sections aren't
relevant. There are tons of other javascript tutorials out there. The
Xerte scripting language is basically javascript.

The O'Reilly ActionScript 2 book is a great introduction to object
oriented programming if you are new to that.

Hi,
Can I add to Jon's request with one of my own ( a repeat really) -- does

anyone know of a good training course in ActionScript as well?
