I am having a problem with loading data from an external source on my webpage: Tucker’s World under Contact Me

it displays _level0.name/email/location for about half a second then displays “undefined”

Can anyone help me? I got this from a tutorial somewhere on kirupa

:geek: The .fla and data.txt is attached

Try emptying the Var field for all 3 textfields.

Sorry, I am a real newbie at all of this, could you please specify the var field?

what if i want to just have a text area and have it linked to an external .txt file that contained html to display a table. I know how to set the text area up to have html allowed but have no clue on how to link it to the txt file. Thank you so much.
