Hello!

Can I load a plain text file, or an html file in a Flash MX textbox?
I can do it with files formated as "var1=some text&var2=some more text
etc", but I would like it to load any text or html file. Is that possible?

Thanks a lot in advance

Ken, There is an extension called External Text MX by Kamran Riaz that is
supposed to do exactly what you want. It is on Macromedia exchange under Flash.
But I'm not sure that it works. I have tried it without success. My problem is
that I can't get it to read my external text file. Maybe you could get it to
work. If you do, please post a reply either in this thread, or in the thread I
have created under:'Problem using Extrenal Text Extension for Flash MX', and
explain how you did it. Good luck Bijan
