I am new to flash and this forum so I am sorry if this has been asked elseware. I am loading text from another file and I want to be able to make it an active link. Also I want to be able to fade it in and out. I have loaded into a movie clip and used motion tweening to change the alphas but it is not working. Thanks much.
Welcome to kirupaforum:)
For the links set your textfield to html enabled, this might help

If you want to fade in/out, you’ll have to embed the text. Select your textfield, in the properties window, click the “character” button and choose one of the options;)

Thanks muchly, the fading is totally fadalicious.
As I mentioned I was able to get the fading to work but for the life of me I can’t get the html linkage to work. I used “name” for the name of my instance and then I type
name.html = true;
name.htmlText = this.name;

I then just used a simple html tag in my .txt file. The tag then shows up in my movie unchanged. It is driving me crazy. Thanks again.
