I am unable to get a simple dynamic text box to work properly when it is in a movie clip. I am sure my AS is ok as I can get it to work when it is placed in the main scene. I am trying to place the text in a window that is brought up through navigation. When I place it there, I cant get it to work. Is this a limitation of dynamic text that it needs to be in the main scene?
I don’t believe there are any limitations like that. I hate to say it, but check your AS again, or post it on here for someone to look at.
I have attached a file that you can look at. Truthfully I am pretty new at flash and am learning as I go. I really appreciate your help.
Try this. The history link works.
Thanks alot. I really appreciate your help. I think I found another way to do it too this morning.
loadText = new loadVars();
loadText.load(“history.txt”);
//creating the loadVarsText function
loadText.onLoad = function() {
textbox.text = this.historyText;
