Loading external text into a attachmovie window

Hello all,

The current project I am working on is: http://www.steadyscene.com/clubaddiction

The owner would like to update the INFO, CONTACT and LINKS sections of the site but does not have Flash. Having the owner edit a text file in notepad and then upload that to the server would be ideal. (I have seen the Kirupa tutorials but they do not satisfy my requirements)

What I want to accomplish seems to fall in the “Loading external text into a flash movie” category.

However, here is my situation and here are my requirements:

  • The text has to be loaded into a attachmovie window. The buttons on the site use attachMovie which snap to an empty mvie clip called “HOLDER”

  • currently on the site, you see that I have created standard Dynamic Text boxes with the instance of “infotxt”. So the instance name needs to stay as it is, unless there is another method that accomplishes the same thing. This is a basic method of scrolling the text box with a button, using simple actionscript:

on (press) {
infotxt.scroll
infotxt.scroll -= 1; }

Currently, when the navigation buttons are clicked, the attachMovie are loaded into the empty mc “holder”. Once the attachMovies are loaded, you see dynamic text fields with buttons to scroll.

Please provide feedback as to what to implement to satisfy my requirements.

Regards,
Daniel
