Hi there, I need to dynamically load text into Flash. I have a .txt file named “01.txt” from which the text is loaded, in which the text opens with “myText=” followed by the regular text. In flash I have a dynamic text field “content\_txt”. I got this script:

text = new LoadVars();  
text.onLoad = function() {  
content\_txt.text = this.myText;  
};

tekst.load(“01.txt”);

Now how do I enable html? I checked the “\<\>” button in the properties of the dynamic text field, but when I type html tags in the original txt file, Flash doesn’t pick up on it. Say, I type \<b\>hello\</b\> in the original text file to get ‘hello’ to be displayed bold, the text simply displays as “\<b\>hello\</b\>”. I have checked several tutorials, but I must be missing something… Any help appreciated!
