Loading text

1

Dear kirupians

I am tring to create an information post using loading text from text files:

I have a combo box which I have populated using AS

I would like users to select an item from the combobox - this would change the text in the dynamic text box I have.

Basically a user selects the room number and then the eqipment list is posted in the text box.

  1. I have been using the on(Change) function for the combobox, I would like to replace the getUrl with a fuction that loads a text file into the text area:

on(change)
{
if ( this.selectedItem.label == “room 1” )
{
//getUrl

}
else if ( this.selectedItem.label == “room 2” )
{
//getUrl
}
else if ( this.selectedItem.label == “room 3” )
{
//getUrl
}

}

  1. I need the text to apear in a list format e.g:

A) DVD player
B) LCD projector
C) Smart board

Is this possible with plain text or do I need something like the XML connector?

If anyone can help me that would be great

I’m just a beginner so please be gentle

Many thanks

Joe
