Hi everybody,

I am trying to create a flash based LAN Messenger, using flash & third party applications.

My Messenger uses Text Field similar to all the messengers. Also I want to place smileys(moviclips or images) inside the textfield.

As far as I know, there is only one Flash Component called “SmileyTextField” by “Julien” available at [http://www.jolan.org](http://www.jolan.org). But it seems this text field is not

compatible with Flash MX 2004 Pro.

So I want to know whether it is possible to place a moviclip (smileys) inside a textfiled during runtime.

Thank You,

Kannan.
