Is it possible to execute actionscript when a “link” is clicked in dynamically loaded text in a textbox? I am working on a projector project and want to dynamically load text but I want to have certian words in the text clickable that execute actionscript commands within the flash movie. Is this possible, I tried searching for an answer but couldn’t find anything.

as far as i know the dynamically loaded text can be used only as html but i might be wrong in this.

Looked it up in AS Dictionary, thanks kax, though I remembered seeing something about this before but couldn’t find it. All my searches wound up with threads about loading dynamic text using actionscript.
