I’ve been looking for a tutorial that loads different variables in a text file to different textfield/textbox in flash using AS3. So my text file would look like this:

myVariable1=\<p class=‘header’\>Headline1\</p\>\<br\>Subtext content 1  
myVariable2=\<p class=‘header’\>Headline2\</p\>\<br\>Subtext content 2  
myVariable3=\<p class=‘header’\>Headline2\</p\>\<br\>Subtext content 3

And “myVariable1” would load in textbox “myText\_txt\_1” in flash and “myVariable2” would load in textbox “myText\_txt\_2” and so on…

I think this is possible in AS2 but is this even possible in AS3?

:lol:Thanks for the help!
