Can someone please take a look at this? All I’m trying to do is for flash to treat the external file as html and not show those goddam <brrrrrrrrrrrr>'s…
You mean like this? :beam:
Hi,
It needs a second field to render htmlText and some frames to ‘think’ about it.
I’m uploading a working version

Nice one Cello, your way of doing it is much better!!!:thumb: :thumb: :thumb:
Geniuses! :thumb:
Well, there’s a second part to this guestbook 
I’ve created the form and all, written a php to write the entries into a text file (which was the above k.txt). The issue is when the user hits the submit button, flash writes it in that text file, at the same time plays on to reveal the guestbook entries… And the last entry is not there… :h: the page needs to be refreshed to display the last message. Is there a way around this?
Yikes - I’m no genius!
I suggest that on submit you post the entry to write to the guestbook and then go to a different frame on the timeline which then reads the complete k.txt.
ie
Frame 1 - Form with fields and submit button - goto10
Frame 10 - ‘Sending data…’ - goto15
Frame 15 - ‘Retrieving guestbook…’ - goto20
Frame 20 - New layout with your fla above - stop();
That’s basically how mine works anyway 
Hope it helps
wait… that’s what I’m doing though. My guestbook sends the entry to the text file at frame 15, and then retrieves the text file at frame 43. But they’re all in the same fla, is that the main point? I mean will it show the refreshed text file if I load in another fla?
