Hey I need a little help. I have a scroll bar set up on my site, it's very simple. I have an "up" button and "down" button, for the up I have the action set as "go to (previous frame)" and opposite for the down button. It works fine but I was wanting to spice it up some. I would like to have the text and the page fade out when you click up or down, but I'm not sure how to. If anyone could help me I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks.
 
Guess the text would have to be in movie clips with built in fades in & out and with stop actions on the first frame,and on the frame before the fade out. The scroll buttons would then controls the different movie clips.

What about using a mask layer your text and have it
change mask opacity over time. Not sure of the syntax but something like:

onClipEvent (enterFrame)
if (_alpha >= 0){
_alpha -=1
}else if (alpha<=20){
_alpha==00
}
}

Or have your text fade over several frames using Tweening.
Set apha to zero at beginning frame and grow to 100 at end frame.
 
Dave,
Could the 3 frames appear as a one frame movie clip in scene one?
