[F5] Something basic about setting out actionscript code

1

Hi, im writing a flash website for my fizzgeeks project, and I have a really large string variable that im using for a scrolling text box. I’m not too familiar with actionscript, and I was wondering if there is a continuation symbol, so i can split the string over several lines. Its so large, that for some reason, it doesn’t appear in the actionscript editor, although its still there :*(

thanks for any help anyone can offer.

A continuation symbol eh? For strings it would be a simple + sign…

newstring = “Hello my name is marlin and” +
“I am a robotic turd wiper.” +
“If you have anymore questions…” +
“Please try again at another time.”;

Just like that man… :slight_smile:
