I have a simple flash movie with a text field named ‘txt1’.

# The following is the code in the root frame.

# var r:LoadVars = new LoadVars(); r.load(“test.txt”); r.onLoad = function() { txt1.text = this.Data; }

# The content of test.txt is:

# &Data=Microsoft C++ is a Object Oriented Programming Language. C# (pronounced C Sharp) is not an extension or evolution of C++ as C++ is to C, but it is a completely new langauge.

When the data is loaded into the text field, I dont see the ++.  
Instead I see space characters.

I tried using the escape character , but in vain.

Can any body pls explain me what the problem is ?
