Tutorial > Overview
OverviewImagine that once upon a time there was a kite shop with a Web site. Customers would go to this site and scroll through static images of different kites to decide on the one they wantedat least, that was the goal. In truth, most of the customers became bored with the site and went off to do something else. While the Web page served a purpose, it didn't really capture anyone's attention.
Now imagine you can add Flash to the site. In this tutorial you'll author a Web page for Orbit Kitesan interactive site that lets users view and design their own kites. After customers decide on a kite, they click a button that displays the invoice for the selected kite while playing an animation of the kite flying.
