[font=verdana][size=2][color=black]**Ok, this is like my fifth post in the forums. My very first post question was answered in like the same day. My other three to this day still remain unanswered:upset:. Not to worry though, I perservered and figured it out myself. I don’t understand why I couldn’t get any help though;Did I post my question incorrectly or something? If I violated a Forum rule in any way, please let me know. Anyway, I have stumbled upon yet another problem and I’m having the darndest time trying to figure out how to fix it. Here’s the rundown:
I have created a .fla which serves as my main movie with a MC that is being used to display an external .swf file. The .swf file has a dynamic textfield that displays data from a loaded .txt file. The data is nothing more than updated news posts, nothing complicated right? Well, the loadMovie function is working as it should, however my dynamic textfield is not displaying the contents of my .txt file correctly. When I test the .swf file that contains the field, my data shows up, but not all of the way. Basicallly, the textfield(which has a working scrollbar attached to it) is only displaying 3/4ths of the file. The scrollbar works as it should, but stops BEFORE the end of the content in the .txt file that is supposed to be displayed. I checked to make sure that I didn’t have a maxlength or something to that effect checked in the Property Inspector for the textfield and seeing that I didn’t I concluded that that wasn’t the problem. Then I changed my font size down to 14(it was previously 16) thinking that that may be the problem…upon testing, still no fix. Then I clicked on the scrollbar componant in my library to look at the actionscript, but seeing as how I’m not very knowledgeable in that area yet, I didn’t want to mess with it and possibly “break” my componant.
Can someone please explain why my textarea isn’t displaying all of the data from my loaded .txt file? And could you assist me in fixing it? I would really appreciate any assistance offered. Thanks guys!!!**[/color][/size][/font]
