regarding this tutorial:

[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/dynamic\_scroller.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/dynamic_scroller.htm)

works perfect in flash 6. when i try to publish to flash 8 it fails… and i need flash 8 to antialias the text for readabilty so as to match the dynamic flash 8 texts on the other pages which do not scroll…

has anyone else encountered this and/or know of a way to ‘fix’ it?

the code is so simple…

loadText = new loadVars();  
loadText.load(“kirupa.txt”);  
//creating the loadVarsText function  
loadText.onLoad = function() {  
scroller.text = this.kirupatext;  
};

why on earth would it fail in flash 8? wouldn’t post here for help if had not already tried everything within the realm of my modest comprehension and ability.
