Hello, I was hoping you could help with this probem I’ve been having.

I am loading HTML from an external .txt file into my movie. The text shows up just fine, but certain HTML tags like the \<h1\> and \<table\> tags don’t seem to be working. Is this a feature or am I doing something wrong?

Obviously, I am a flash newbie and I greatly appreciate any help.
