Because of the different rendering across browsers, Microsoft Internet Explorer definitely see that in mind, we must always resort to tricks to apply special effects that now should be a standard. The award-discussed rounded edges are a classic example of "disaster" produced by the complete inability to make a serious standards on page rendering HTML / CSS. , etc… There are many solutions that allow the network to obtain the "effects" (effects of exempting existing HTML as rounded edges, shadow effects, reflections, etc ...) with patches on the leaves of styles, special tricks with the use of div grafted, libraries JavaScript, use of canvas , etc ...
On a purely technical teaching I would like to explain further (cross-browser) to apply the rounded edges of the images:

In view of the object-oriented programming comes naturally produce components for reuse in other projects, especially if these components are general-purpose. The use of the classes is surely a first step in the reuse of code, however, often these classes are linked to MovieClip also extremely complex. Thus arises the need to "import" is the ActionScript class (which is very easy) but also all the symbols associated with it.

Creating Components in Flash

This road is certainly the most correct from a strictly logical point of view. However, at least in the version of Flash MX, create a component that is at least close to those provided with the development environment is no small feat. ) e la scrittura estremamente accurata della classe legata al nostro componente. The members, in fact, especially visual, requires a whole series of procedures (such as the inclusion of interfaces UIObject or UIComponent ) and writing highly accurate class related to our component. But the fact remains that creating a component is an interesting experience to do, but the development time is truly remarkable. Also as a component must support the mode in designtime or author-what else does it offer a preview of what will happen at runtime. You can associate an icon and documentation can be perfectly integrated in the IDE Flash, complete with intellisense when writing code. So here you choose this path involves a considerable expenditure of time, probably reserved for special projects where, for example, the component is precisely the objective of the project.
There are software house specialized in the production of components for Flash, as both free and paid products. Excluding so very simple components, such as where there is no user interface, this method is great but expensive and temporalemte so little used in most cases.
