Try this:
1. trace("Hello World!");

Preface - Why ActionScript 3.0?
Everyone knows what Flash is for, off course.
But do you know what actually drives the animations? Or the characters in your online Flash games? Why do they respond to our mouse clicks or keyboard hits? They are all written in the scripts behind them that make them have actions! Yup, it's the ActionScript!
This blog is everything you need to know to create your own "smart" or fully responsive websites or even cool games like the one you play on FACEBOOK, and handy apps like picture gallery using ActionScript 3.0 (AS3).
Why do I bother sharing what I have mastered from spending 4.5 years of my youth life in Computer Science School at Monash University with you guys? Because I got really bored with all the static and lifeless websites! I want more people to know how to revamp their websites and create cooler online games! For better online experience! Plus, I haven't seen many free resources that focus on just ActionScripting without rehashing too much on what we already know about Flash. Besides, for God's sheik, good IT books are so expensive these days!
So this blog could be your one-stop learning resources on AS3, especially for those who do not have a chance to learn as much as I do, like fellow web developers in Indonesia, the land of outsourcing potentials. Some articles are written in Bahasa Indonesia to dedicate this blog to them.
Why AS3 though?
