hi,
can I load external text file with html tags into flash?
For example:
There is a text filed with declared html tags such as bold, italics, size, font and other simple tags. After loading the text file into the rendered html text field in flash, its loading the text and html tags as string.
Is there any way to go for this?
thanking you,
Prathap

```auto
myText = "this is BOLD text"
myTextBox.html = truel
myTextBox.htmlText = myText
```
This code goes on a frame, and the var name of your dynamic text box is “myTextBox”.
