[color=black][font=Arial]Hi Guys,[/font][/color]
[color=black][/color]
[color=black][font=Arial]First post :)[/font][/color]
[color=black][/color]
[color=black][font=Arial]Am working on a flash site with dynamic text pulled into a text box with a scroll bar using html formatting in a .txt file.(first time with dynamic text)[/font][/color]
[color=black][font=Arial]If I just pull in from a standard text file all is well but if i want to pull in from a html formatted .txt file I see the contents very briefly, less than a second, that’s why for a long time I didn’t think it was loading at all, then its gone, and it only shows once for each preview?[/font][/color]
[color=black][font=Arial]I’ve never had to post for advice like this before so if you can let me know what info you guys would need to get a better handle on this please let me know.[/font][/color]
[color=black][font=Arial]Thinking back it was a tutorial from this site i started out with,[/font][/color]
[color=black][/color]
[color=black][font=Arial]loadText = new loadVars();
loadText.load(“kirupa.txt”);
//creating the loadVarsText function
loadText.onLoad = function() {
scroller.text = this.kirupatext;
};[/font][/color]

[color=black][font=Times New Roman]With the code above all i was able to pull in was the .txt unformatted files but by adding html before the Text instances I got to where I am now.[/font][/color]
