Hi,  
I was making a site in flash and i ran into a probleme and its that i am loadind text from a mysql database thru php into flash. I use the “How to Use Flash with PHP and mySQL” tutorial to load the text but when i try to add a scroll bar it doesn’t work, but if I put text in the textbox then it works. If someone could please help me that would be great.
