Hello, am currently facing an issue with displaying the % sign in my dynamic textbox which is loading a text file saved in UTF-8 format. Anyone can help pls? Am using Flash CS5.

my text file contains this:

varEn=Discounts up to 10% on any goods bought today!

And my code for this part (AS 2.0):

```auto

if (lang == 'en')
   numline = this.varEn;

Text1.text = numline;

```
