First time poster and a beginner with flash. I don’t know if this is where I should post my questions. I have been trying unsuccessfully for nearly a week now to make a text pop-up. Not sure if that is the correct name of it, but it is one of those “pop-up” text boxes that is draggable, scrollable and close-able that I have seen from other flash sites that are usually attached to a “read more” button. I do have a flash template with a pop up text box but all the “read more” buttons pop up the same text box. I wanted to know how to get a different one to pop up for each button or how to construct one from scratch. Is there a tutorial somewhere that will help me?

Thank you in advance.
