Just discovered the otherwise flawless textbox I’ve used has a problem. When it opens on one page and you read it to the bottom - ie: you scroll down, then when you open it again with another button - changing the text - it stays at the bottom. What I’d like it to do is jump back up to the top of the text every time it changes - and I have absolutely no clue as to how to go about doing this. check: [www.urbanscrawl.com](http://www.urbanscrawl.com) - and you’ll see what I mean. ---

Just a thought, have you tried reloading the text box when another button is pressed? I’m not sure how you have it scripted, but I think that would solve your problem…maybe… Rev:elderly: ---

That sounds very promising… I’m not sure how to do that though - is it just ‘loadmovie’ at the beginning of the scrolling actionscript? ---

that all depends, how do you load it the first time? If it is just a keyframe, then make another keyframe, and goto there when clicked… If this doesn’t make sense, let me know… Rev:elderly:
