Hello everybody! Thanx alot for all your tips. I have a problem that i cant find in tutorial or forum.

I am loading external textfiles into my \*.swf in a dynamic-textfield and want to use CCS to shape them up. Can anyone please help where to put in the stylesheet code to get this working?

var thumb\_spacing = 110;  
var columns = 5;  
// load variables object to handle loading of text  
var description\_lv = new LoadVars();  
description\_lv.onData = function(raw\_text) {  
description\_txt.text = raw\_text  
};  
function GeneratePortfolio(portfolio\_xml) {  
var portfolioPictures = portfolio\_xml.firstChild.childNodes;  
for (var i = 0; i\<portfolioPictures.length; i++) {  
var currentPicture = portfolioPictures\*;  
var currentThumb\_mc = menu\_mc.createEmptyMovieClip(“thumbnail\_mc”+i, i);  
currentThumb\_mc.\_x = (i%columns)\*thumb\_spacing;  
currentThumb\_mc.\_y = Math.floor(i/columns)\*thumb\_spacing;  
currentThumb\_mc.createEmptyMovieClip(“thumb\_container”, 0);  
currentThumb\_mc.thumb\_container.loadMovie(currentPicture.attributes.thumb);  
currentThumb\_mc.title = currentPicture.attributes.title;  
currentThumb\_mc.image = currentPicture.attributes.image;  
currentThumb\_mc.description = currentPicture.attributes.description;  
currentThumb\_mc.onRollOver = currentThumb\_mc.onDragOver=function () {  
info\_txt.text = this.title;  
};  
currentThumb\_mc.onRollOut = currentThumb\_mc.onDragOut=function () {  
info\_txt.text = “”;  
};  
currentThumb\_mc.onRelease = function() {  
image\_mc.loadMovie(this.image);  
description\_lv.load(this.description);  
timeline.loadVariables(baseurl + this.TEXT);

```
    };
}

```

}  
// xml object for xml content (defines sources for selections)  
var portfolio\_xml = new XML();  
portfolio\_xml.ignoreWhite = true;  
portfolio\_xml.onLoad = function(success) {  
if (success) {  
GeneratePortfolio(this);  
} else {  
trace(“Error loading XML file”);  
}  
// no success? trace error (wont be seen on web)  
};  
// load  
portfolio\_xml.load(“portfolio.xml”);
