Learning Flash is Easy. Once you get the hang of it, No one can stop you.

[edit] Basics

This are some of the easiest AS. It's the timeline control. You can insert this into the frame or a button. These are some examples:

Insert this in a frame to stop the timeline

   stop();

Insert this in a frame to make the timeline go to a specific frame

   gotoAndPlay(1); //You can replace 1 with any number. You can also replace Play with Stop

If you want a button to do these commands. Insert them like this:

   on(press) { //you can change press with release or rollOver
       _root.play() //you can change play with stop or gotoAndPlay or gotoAndStop
   }

You can also direct the browser to another website:

   on(press) {
       getURL("www.anywebsiteyowant.com",_blank)
   }

That will take you to www.anywebsiteyouwant.com I think that should roughly cover all the basics.
