Does anybody know how to apply this text effect [http://www.jabra.com/](http://www.jabra.com/) (including the blinking underscore) to a text field that loads from an external .txt file.

In addition is there anyway to apply a very small sound clip to it, to be played as each letter is loaded.

I’m sure there have been many threads about that typewriter effect. Did you search the forums?

ok two things. First off use i have checked the forums. Sofar i have found where i have asked this question about 12 times. Secondly Swish can do the type effect to words that you want it to be applied to yes. BUT… my text is being inputed from a notepad .txt file because it will constantly be changing (i.e news board). Surely there must be a way to simply tell a text box to apply the typewriter effect to whatever is being loaded into it.

Attached i have a file where supposedly simply changing the text output code will enable it to perform the typing effect to a textbox that retrieves its text externally.

ok apparently for some reason i cannot attach files at the moment. In addition it seems i can only quick reply and i am logged in. Don’t know why but whenever my abilty to post attachments comes back up i’ll send it to you. If you review some of my last post though i should have one asking about the type effect and having an attachment with it labled typewriter.
