Hi all,first posting on the forum…  
I’m trying to create a form (that has checkboxes) using HTML.  
This form is supposed to be scrollable because of the length.Also,its supposed to be on a mobile device,so I’m using FlashLite2.x and a Nokia 6680 emulator.  
Now, I’ve selected the “Render as HTML” button in the property  
section of my text area (which is called story) and used the ff. codes  
in actionscript:

stop ();  
// Scroll continuously up at frame rate of movie  
function continuousScrollUp2() {  
this.onEnterFrame = function() {  
if (story.scroll \> 0) {  
story.scroll–;  
}  
}  
}  
// Scroll continuously down at frame rate of movie  
function continuousScrollDown2() {  
this.onEnterFrame = function() {  
if (story.scroll \< story.maxscroll) {  
story.scroll++;  
}  
}  
}

story.htmlText ="\<font color="#0000FF"\>\<b\>The privacy policy of the different websites\</b\>\<br /\>\<b\>you may be visiting will vary concerning\</b\>\<br /\>\<b\>the use of your personal information.\</b\>\<br /\>\<br /\>\<b\>Select preferred level of privacy\</b\>\<br /\>\<form\>\<input type=“checkbox” value=“Low”/\>Low\<br /\>\<input type=“checkbox” value=“Medium”/ \>Medium\<br /\>\<input type=“checkbox” name=“Level” value=“High” /\>High\</form\>\<br /\> \<br /\>\<b\>Would you like pShopper to ask for your\</b\>\<br /\>\<b\>permission before receiving promotional\</b\>\<br /\>\<b\>adverts from websites?\</b\>\<br /\>\<form\>\<input type=“checkbox” name=“permission” value=“Yes” /\>Yes\<br /\>\<input type=“checkbox” name=“permission” value=“No” \>No\<br /\>\<input type=“checkbox” name=“permission” value=“Maybe” \>Maybe\</form\>\<br /\> \<br /\>\<b\>Specify preferred time of the day to receive adverts\</b\>\<br /\>\<form\>\<input type=“checkbox” name=“time” value=“Morning” \>Morning\<br /\>\<input type=“checkbox” name=“time” value=“Afternoon” \>Afternoon\<br /\>\<input type=“checkbox” name=“time” value=“Evening” \>Evening\<br /\>\<input type=“checkbox” name=“time” value=“Anytime” \>Anytime\</form\>\<br /\>\<br /\>\<frame\>\<b\>\<i\>PERSONAL INFORMATION(name,address,etc)\</i\>\</b\>\<br /\>\<p\>Reject promotional adverts from websites that:\</p\>\<br /\>\<form\>\<input type=“checkbox” name=“reject1” value=“Share my personal information with other websites without my full knowledge and consent” \>Share my personal information with other websites\<br /\> without my full knowledge and consent\<br /\>\<br /\>\<input type=“checkbox” name=“reject1” value=“Do not allow me to unsubscribe from their mailing list” \>Do not allow me to unsubscribe from their mailing list\<br /\>\<br /\>\<input type=“checkbox” name=“reject1” value=“Do not explicitly highlight their data-sharing practices” \>Do not explicitly highlight their data-sharing practices\<br /\>\<br /\>\<input type=“checkbox” name=“reject1"value=“Do not allow me to find out what data they have about me”\>Do not allow me to find out what data they have about me\</form\>\<br /\>\<br /\>\<b\>\<i\>ENVIRONMENTAL INFORMATION\</i\>\</b\>\<br /\>\<p\>Reject promotional adverts from websites that:\</p\>\<br /\>\<form\>\<input type=“checkbox” name=“reject2” value=“Do not explicitly highlight their environmental/carbon practices” \>Do not explicitly highlight their environmental/carbon practices\<br /\>\<br /\>\<input type=“checkbox” name=“reject2” value=“Do not market ‘green’ products” \>Do not market ‘green’ products\<br /\>\<br /\>\<input type=“checkbox” name=“reject2” value=“Do not practice Fair Trade” \>Do not practice Fair Trade\<br /\>\</form\>\<br /\>\<br /\>\<b\>\<i\>LOCATION/GPS INFORMATION\</i\>\</b\>\<br /\>\<p\>Reject promotional adverts from websites that track\<br /\>my location and then use my GPS data:\</p\>\<br /\>\<form\>\<input type=“checkbox” name=“reject3” value=“For illegitimate disclosure to individuals\<br /\>and other companies/third parties” \>For illegitimate disclosure to individuals\<br /\>and other companies/third parties\<br /\>\<br /\>\<input type=“checkbox” name=“reject3” value=“To obtain other information from my personal device” \>To obtain other information from my personal device\<br /\>\<br /\>\<input type=“checkbox” name=“reject3” value=“To analyze my pattern of movement” \>To analyze my pattern of movement\<br /\>\<br /\>\<input type=“checkbox” name=“reject3” value=“Without allowing me to opt-out” \>Without allowing me to opt-out\<br /\>\<br /\>\<input type=“checkbox” name=“reject3” value=“Without prior consent from me” \>Without prior consent from me\</form\>\<br /\>\<br /\>\<b\>\<i\>PURCHASE INFORMATION\</i\>\</b\>\<br /\>\<p\>Reject promotional adverts from websites that use information\<br /\>about my purchases:\</p\>\<br /\>\<form\>\<input type=“checkbox” name=“reject4” value=“To share with individuals\<br /\>and other companies/third parties” \>To share with individuals\<br /\>and other companies/third parties\<br /\>\<br /\> \<input type=“checkbox” name=“reject4” value=“To analyze my habits and determine what adverts I see” \>To analyze my habits and determine what adverts I see\</form\>\</frame\>\<br /\>\<br /\>\<button\> SUBMIT \</button\>\</font\>”;

However, during runtime, only the first portion of the form is visible and  
I dont see any checkboxes.Does anyone have any idea how to get around this??
