ActionScript is an ECMAScript-based programming language used for scripting Macromedia Flash movies and applications. Since both ActionScript and JavaScript are based on the same ECMAScript syntax, fluency in one theoretically translates easily to the other. However, while JavaScript's DOM is browser window, document and form centric, the ActionScript DOM is movie centric, which may include animations, audio, text and event handling.
