Im loading content from an external text file, but when I press return to do a line break Flash shows its as a double line break.

eg:  
Blah Blah Blah  
Blah

is what I want

Blah Blah Blah

Blah

Is what I get.

I’ve searched the forums and found out how to do it in xml, but I’m using normal .txt files. Help please…
