ERRATA
On page 281, the third sentence of the last tip on the page is inaccurate. It should say "The doubled keyframe will cause a slight delay in the motion, which you may not want."
On page 391, at the bottom of the page, it should say this:
CAUTION: Although you can add sounds to a button symbol as outlined in this
task, in your published movie the button will behave in an unexpected
manner. Due to a bug, currently when users click an instance of a button
symbol in a published movie, the button repeats the sound of the Over frame
and plays the Down frame sound as well. To avoid confusion, use sound only
in the Down frame of the button. To give users good button feedback, be sure
to make the Over frame visually distinctive from the Up frame.
