Hey everyne! I am farily new to Flash Mx 2004 and I am having a problem with a particular issue. I found Kirupa’s tutorial on how to load external text from a text file into a dynamic textbox and it works great. But what I am really needing is to be able to have the information that loads be able to be rendered as HTML so that I can use some of the text as hyperlinks. I also still need to be able to scroll this text as outlined in his tutorial.

Is there anyone out there who can help me with this? I have been searching for wuite some time and I am stuck!

Thanks.
