I want to make a dynamic textbox with html, but the code is just written instead of being translated… Anyone know why?

u have to enable html 2 be used. it’s something like this:
```php
lloadText = new loadVars();
loadText.load("kirupa.txt");
loadText.html = yes;
//creating the loadVarsText function
loadText.onLoad = function() {
scroller.text = this.kirupatext;
};
```
I’m not really sure on this, but u can try it.

Nope… Nothing works… It just writes
```php

```

There’s a tutorial on the site (I think it’s in the ActionScript section though) for loading HTML files. Check there.

[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/changing\_font.asp](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/changing_font.asp) \<-- this changes the font, but I’m sure it’s easy enough to change around for what you want

```auto
loadText = new loadVars();
loadText.load("kirupa.txt");
loadText.html = yes;
//creating the loadVarsText function
loadText.onLoad = function() {
scroller.html = true;
scroller.htmlText = this.kirupatext;
};
```
You have to HTML enable your text box first.

Well if you are using the code I posted in my last post, html text should be working fine and dandy.
Your font has to be bigger than size 11 on Verdana for the bold to show up I think.

Dude, what tags are you using?
That definitely shouldn’t be happening.

Well just
```php
Something
```
That’s the only html in there!

So inside your .txt file you have…
```php
kirupatext= something
```

You sure it is kirupatext= and not kirupatext = , that space makes all the difference.

Ah crap… I forgot to change something in my script…
```auto
loadText = new loadVars();
loadText.load("kirupa.txt");
//creating the loadVarsText function
loadText.onLoad = function() {
scroller.html = true;
scroller.htmlText = this.kirupatext;
};
```
Now try that code.

I tested the code. Works fine for me.
You are making sure that your font size is 11 or higher right?
Check my attachment to see what I did. Works great for me.
