I’m having a serious issue with a website I’m making in Flash. I’m loading external content (text) into Flash and I want to have scrollbars. You think this would be easy; I drag the scrollbar component onto the text box, have it work all nice, etc… And it does, but only when I’m in the publishing environment. When I put it online, however, my scroll bars are simply not there. I have code to update the scrollbars after the content is loaded, and it works fine on my computer, just not online. Does anyone have any help?
