Hi,  
I’m working on a website in which the content is  
completely dynamic; all the content comes from a  
content management system.

I have a scrollpane and in there is a textfield  
with the autosize set to true so that when the  
text is bigger than the scrollpane you’ll see the  
scrollbar.

Now the client wants to have images in the  
textarea. I have tried to use the html IMG tag  
but the problem is that flash doesn’t like to  
autosize the textfield properly when there are  
images in the textfield… It looks like the IMG  
tag support in html textfields is still a bit  
buggy…

I also tried to use more than one textfield (one  
for each paragraph) with images as movieclips that  
are standing in between these fields.  
But because this construction is using a lot of  
attachMovies the scrollpane has a problem with  
refreshing itself.

**[COLOR=darkblue]What is the best way to scroll a ‘page’ with text  
AND images in it, when all the content is  
dynamically loaded?[/COLOR]**

This is so easy and standard in html… how hard  
can it be in flash… ???

thanks,
