flash actionscript: I was writing a simple example of the use of variables for a class, using
trace() to display the results. The movie consists of three input fields and a
button. Once this data is filled I execute the trace() function by rollin over
the button. What I get as a result is a bit strange and something I've never
encountered before. This is the result I get in the Output window.
"<p align="left"></p><p align="left"></p><p align="left"></p>"
Each of the input fields are assigned variables and a new variable adds them
togeter.
var together_var:String= firstName_var + lastName_var + id_var
Can anyone tell me whats going on?
Thanks

Using variables is not the best way - instead give your fields instance
names and then do: instanceName.text

Otherwise, do as kglad suggested and turn off the html property for the
field.
