Hi, I have created a site in flash, which loads external dynamic txt files into flash. I’ve managed to create links in the txt files, but these links open in the same window as my site,and I need them to open into a separate new browserwindow, I know the txt files only support limited html code, so how else could I get this to work? Thanks!

holyhell ive got the same question but with the enter or break code i found a solution but its kinda retarted but sadly i cant find anything else that works… Okay move your current Dynamic text boxes off to the left and in any movieclip avaliable put this code
//Text 2 being your original Dynamic text box you moved over and Text 1 being the one you put in place of the old the
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
\_root.Text2 = \_root.Text1;
}

I dont think we are talking about the same thing, I have already set up the dynamic text to work, I have paragraphs, and links in the txt file, which work fine, only that instead of the links opeening into a new browser window they open in the same window as my flash site. I didnt really understand what you were trying to say, you mentioned in one of yr postings somehitng about break not working… have you tried using the paragraph \ instead?
