I am a new flash user, and this is my first post here on kirupa.
I followed this tutorial: http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash8/scrollbar.htm
and i would like to combine it with http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/dynamic_scroller.htm
Basicly, i would like to have a custom scroll box that loads dynamic text from a txt or xml file. i will be using it for the news on the main page of http://system7design.com
it would be extra cool if i could set an array or something so i can define a date, a heading, and body, and have it auto format like it already is on the page, with the orange dashed lines and junk. Is this possible in flash? could i do it in javascript (which is kinda what i want to do anyway)?
ive been trying to figure this problem out for days now and my head hurts. i think i need another drink.
