need some acceleration/deceleration physics help

[iostream71]

can someone remind me of the formulas involved? i just want to move a clip from point "a" to point "b" and speed/slow it down over time

This is DHTML but JS closely ressembles ActionScript.

Maybe you can follow the source of the js file on here. It is similar to what you want but a simpler way of creating the effect.

I am however going to think about it with my brother as I want to upgrade a DHML API to have a smooth movement effect instead of a normal slide effect. Gary

Yes indeed you cannot download the code directly but you can look at the example stated on the page and download the js files from there.

Sorry can't be easier for you than that. Gary

Maybe something interesting for you here:

http://www.flashkit.com/search.php?cat=movies&field=Description&per=10&page=1&term=physics&x=26&y=11

If the above link doesn't work for you, go here:

http://www.flashkit.com/movies/index.shtml

, and type physics in the top-right search box, besides my_movies

You can also have a look at the tutorials on this site:

oldnewbie's link led me to this excellent one :

http://www.flashkit.com/movies/Scripting/Physics/An_Appli-Tim_Marg-2296/index.shtml

It even explains the physics and what the math formulas are. It is great. Gary

"Yes indeed you cannot download the code directly but you can look at the example stated on the page and download the js files from there."

that's what i mean, all that's there to view are function calls. the .js link is broken.

i'll check those other links
