add concatenation (strings) operator

string1 add string2

Deprecated since Flash Player 5. Adobe recommends that you use the add (+) operator when creating content for Flash Player 5 or later. This operator is not supported in Flash Player 8 or later.

Concatenates two or more strings. The add (+) operator replaces the Flash 4 & operator; Flash Player 4 files that use the & operator are automatically converted to use the add (+) operator for string concatenation when brought into the Flash 5 or later authoring environment. Use the add (+) operator to concatenate strings if you are creating content for Flash Player 4 or earlier versions of the Player.

Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 4

string1 : String - A string.

string2 : String - A string.
