Using basic actions for navigation and interaction

The basic actions in the Actions panel let you control navigation and user interaction in a movie by selecting actions and having Flash write the ActionScript for you. The basic actions include the following:

The Go To action jumps to a frame or scene.
The Play and Stop actions play and stop movies.
The Toggle High Quality action adjusts a movie's display quality.
The Stop All Sounds action stops all sounds in the movie.
The Get URL action jumps to a different URL.
The FSCommand action controls the Flash Player that's playing a movie.
The Load Movie and Unload Movie actions load and unload additional movies.
The Tell Target action controls other movies and movie clips.
The If Frame Is Loaded action checks whether a frame is loaded.
The On Mouse Event action assigns a mouse event or keyboard key that triggers an action.

In addition, the Print action lets you designate frames of your movie as printable.
