I was doing the fading text like in the tutorial and used the motion tween. When i looked down all of the frames it faded in and out. But finnaly when i used publish in the flash player it was just the solid word and it didnt change at all. What is wrong with it. ---

are you using dynamic text? if you are then you need to embed the font. In the properties window click “character” then “embed all” or something to that effect… ---
