I have no problem dynamically loading text if I place a textField on the stage but I can’t seem to get the following to work using the createTextField. I shortened my code to make it easier to read and still show what I am trying to do. Also I can I place the text within the BlueMenu or only on top of it? Is so how?

```auto
import flash.filters.BlurFilter;
import flash.filters.*;
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
//
import flash.geom.*;
import flash.display.BitmapData;
//
var myMCL:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader ();
var myListener:Object = new Object ();
myMCL.addListener (myListener);
//
var lvGalleries:LoadVars = new LoadVars ();
lvGalleries.onData = function (stateData) {
 stateRollOver.htmltext = stateData;
};
var cssStyles:TextField.StyleSheet = new TextField.StyleSheet ();
cssStyles.load ("styles/stateStyles.css");
//
stateMenu ();
function stateMenu () {
 for (var i = 0; i < 1; i++) {
  var menu:MovieClip = this.attachMovie ("bluBox", "bluMenu", +i, i);
  menu._x = 300;
  menu._y = 200;
  menu._yscale = 75;
  var t1:Tween = new Tween (menu, "_xscale", Strong.easeOut, 0, 350, .5, true);
  bluMenu.enabled = false;
  t1.onMotionFinished = function () {
   this.createTextField ("stateRollOver", this.getNextHighestDepth, 100, 100, 400, 400);
   stateRollOver.autoSize = "right"
   stateRollOver.border = true;
   stateRollOver.multiline = true;
   stateRollOver.wordWrap = true;
   stateRollOver.html = true;
   cssStyles.onLoad = function () {
    stateRollOver.text = this;
    lvGalleries.load ("vars/pickStateCSS.html");
   };
  };
 }
}

```
