Rich Text formatting in referenced text file

Hey all,

I’m trying to use external files for the text on this site. But I need to be able to put rich text elements in (bold and italic and such). In order to reference the files I followed the method outlined in Kirupa’s tutorial ( http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/externaldata.htm ) however I can not figure out how to add rich text tags to this. I click on “render text as HTML” but the tags still just show up as text. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks in advance for any help.

To those responsible for this site: just want to express my apreciation for this site and all that it contains, it is by far my number one reference for flash tutorials. Keep up the excellent work.
