Load from textpad - text problems

programming flash
1

I’m loading some text from a textpad. The thing is there is a paragraph and it starts off like so:

“news = New R&B”

R&B means like the music type. When I use flash to load it, the “&” makes flash think B is a variable so it sort of messes up the loading.

Is there a way to put the character & in the textpad without just typing it?

How would I put links inside the textpad so it shows up as a clickable link in flash?

So how do I put links in the txtpad?

Same way as html with an <a href></a> tag but make sure your dynamic text box is rendered for html.

Sorry if that’s not what your asking.

I tried that with a <a href=“google.com”>click here</a> in the textpad - no luck :(.

I think you need the whole path “http://www.google.com”
