Hi guys,

I didn’t want to post newbie question but I couldn’t find an answer to this one anywhere. I didn’t expect to be this difficult.

What I’m trying to do is find a way to open a text box with information in it once you click on read more button. How can this be done?

Also if possible, what are the steps to launch a .swf file within your flash web site.

I greatly appreciate your help and your time.

Kind regards,
