i have a code that will load text from a text file and put it in a dynamic text field:
loadText = new loadVars();
loadText.load(“main.txt”);
// creating the loadVarsText function
loadText.onLoad = function() {
Content.text = this.start;
};
Thats good and all but, i want it to load it and process it as html cause i was going to put this in the text file(main.txt)…
Hello, contact me at \My Email address\
I dont want it to say exactly that, i want it to say it as text with a link, i dont want to make the text filed html like that button does becuase it goes all white and i want the background like there would be on a text field,
Note: this text field is dynamic

I’m not 100% about this but give it a go.
Change the **text** to **htmlText** like this:
[AS]Content.htmlText = this.start;[/AS] or render the dynamic text field as html with the property inspector with the \<\> button.
