I am basically looking for a way to use HTML in flash.

I have tried many tutorials and cant seem to get any of them to work, all i wanna do is put some web links into text i hardcode into a dyamic text field.

I have turned on the “Render as HTML text” in the field but any attempts at coding it fail:

Here is an example of what i do:

I take this code:

onClipEvent (load) {  
TextBox = “This text is in Bold”;  
}

I turn an “Render as HTML text” Then i change the code:

onClipEvent (load) {  
TextBox = “\<b\>This text is in Bold\</b\>”;  
}

The tutorials i use give me this example and say it should work but so far it hasn’t, I dont wanna insult anyones intellagence, but this is really stumping me so any help is very much appreciated.
