Thanks.

A follow up tutorial on the user sign up page. This tutorial will show you how to see if the username and password are found in the database and if they are then a cookie will be created.

How Will It Benefit You?
Well in a PHP series for example I will show how to make a forum and explain in great detail everything that is getting written. I think that the video tutorials will be worth every penny as I will make them as good and well explained as possible so that you learn as much as you can.

I hope to have a series posted within a few weeks so please check back.

Thanks.

The first thing that we do in this tutorial is create a table and add 3 fields to it then we connect to the database and check to see if the user has input all the required information, if the user has then they will be added to the database. I’ll add a line for line explanation later on.

The first thing which we do is create two movieclips, one called player and one called bullet then we remove them from our stage by pressing the delete key on your keyboard.

Comment 1
var Player:player = new player(); This creates a new instance of the movieclip which we made called player.
Player.x = mouseX; This sets the X position of Player to the X position of the mouse.
Player.y = mouseY; This sets the Y position of Player to the Y position of the mouse.
addChild(Player); This adds the Player instance that we have just created to the stage.

Comment 2
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, mousemove); An event listener listens out for an event which has been defined within the paranthesis. Here when the mouse moves on the stage then the function mousemove is called.
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, shoot); When the left mouse button is pressed then the shoot function is called.

Comment 3
function mousemove(e:MouseEvent):void{, This creates the function mousemove and looks for mouse events.
Player.x = mouseX; Update the Player X position to the mouses X when the mouse is moved.
Player.y = mouseY; Update the Player Y position to the mouses Y when the mouse is moved.
} Close the function.

Comment 4
function shoot(e:Event):void{ create a function called shoot.
var Bullet:bullet = new bullet(); This creates a new instance of the bullet movieclip.
Bullet.x = Player.x; The Bullet X position is set to the same as the Player X position.
Bullet.y = Player.y; The Bullet Y position is set to the same as the Player Y position.
addChild(Bullet); Add the instance Bullet to the stage.
Bullet.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, moveBullet); Add an event listener to Bullet for when it enters the frame and when it does call the function moveBullet.
} Now we close the function.

Comment 5
function moveBullet(e:Event):void{ create a function called moveBullet.
e.target.y -= 5; When the function is called the targets Y position will be subract by 5 pixels every frame, this makes the movieclip move up. The target is the Bullet movieclip.
if(e.target.y <= -10){ If the Y of Bullet is less than or equal to minus 10 then the event listener will be removed and so will the movieclip.
e.target.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, moveBullet);
removeChild(MovieClip(e.target));
} Close the function

Thanks for watching the tutorial and reading through the notes. If there is anything that you don’t understand then please post a omment and I will try to explain your problem as best as I can.

What you will learn to do in this video tutorial is to create a basic HTML form which asks the user for their username and password, when the submit button is clicked their username and password will then be added to a MySQL database.
