Simple "input text" Question

Hi

I’m teaching myself ActionScript and the book I’m reading just got into input text capabilities.

The book shows me how to link input text to a variable and output that text to the output window using trace.

My question is: how can I display the text that the user input onto the actual movie. For example… if I wanted the visitor to type their name into the input text box and click Submit and then a phrase shows up with their name such as “Hold on Name, my site will be done soon.”

How do I reference that variable and have it actually display in my movie?

Thanks,
Gregory
