Linebreaks and external txt file

how does one get <br> to work in flash when the <br> is located in an external file?

Ive tried <br>,/n, </p> and a bunch of others. Nothing renders properly in flash. it just displays whatever linebreak code im trying to use.

here is the flash code. the variable it’s grabing is just a string or items pulled from a DB.


text1.html = true;
unicodeData = new LoadVars();
unicodeData.source = "[http://localhost:8080/testingground/instructionslist.jsp](http://localhost:8080/testingground/instructionslist.jsp)";
unicodeData.load(unicodeData.source);
unicodeData.onLoad = function(){
_root.text1.text = _root.unicodeData.myMonth;
}
