I have a little problem. I am to update a website I created in Flash MX 2004. I am now using Flash CS3 Professional and I when I open the original fla file, the scrolling text doesn’t show (I’ve embedded the font) and I can’t figure out how to change the original email links already in place.
Originally in Flash MX 2004 I created the mailto by getURL. When I open it up in CS3 it shows as the “mailto” is in place, (the text has a dotted line below it) but I cannot find the actionscript which is odd. I can create a new mailto, but I don’t know how in this new program.
any help would be great.
Mailto Update: For the mailto, I just made new buttons w/static text and added this to actionscript
on (release) {
getURL("mailto:[email protected]");
}

Scrollbar Update: **Figured this out too. I had to go in and make the text “input” then embed the font with the bitmap text option from the properties window. I tried to embed the text using readability, etc. but couldn’t get it to work.
thanks!
