I am creating this project…

I want to put a picture on the screen along with the text… simple… here comes the tricky part…

I want to be able to click on the EACH WORD OF THE TEXT at runtime… and here the sound of the WORD… think along the line of a hyperlink…

I discover flash 2004 can only do this if the TEXTFIELD IS STATIC not DYNAYMIC… which I have tried but doesn’t give me that much flexibilty… i.e can’t change the font at runtime e.g.

## Solution 1

Pro’s… Using CSS I discover that I could mainuplate the text field as much as I can… and also have each word highlightable with some trciky html editing with the ‘href’ ediiting… BUT

Con’s… Now I can make each word highlight even change the font… I simply can’t figure out how to make this word… when clicked to communicate with flash (bare in mind… I don’t tend for the app to be working on a brower… but within a container… like ZINC…)

So as anybody got any clever or cunning idea… into how I can get around this issue… SOMEHOW tell FLASH everytime each time the WORD is clicked???

This is quite a tricky one… but I know there is a solution out there somewhere… Anybody have a hunch on how to solve this… or is it a question of waiting for ODDBALL 😉 to come and pray that it has this extensive feature that will allow me to do this.
