Hello everyone!  
I was wondering if someone could help me with linking in Dynamic textfields.

When I set a link in a textfield, I want the contents of that link to display in that same textfield.

I was wondering if this can be done with external .txt files. (i.e. I set in a link in my .txt file that displays in a dynamic textfield. When the link is clicked, the contents display in the same textfield and NOT a new browser). Can this be done or is there a better way? I’ve scanned the net and various forums addressing this issue but I haven’t found any solutions.

I’m still new at Flash so any advice would be much appreciated!

Thanks.C:-)
