macromedia flash sitedesign: wassup genius',

Is there a way to import text into flash without using "&" symbols? The
links I need to connect to have "&" in them, and the flash file leaves stuff
blank once it sees a & in a txt file. I can send the txt file and give a
link to the site if anyone is able to offer advice.

thanks so much in advance!

External text has to be URL encoded, which means it has to use the ampersand.
The ampersand is an escape symbol. You can use entity codes with the ampersand
to insert various symbols. Here's a few useful ones:

&32; Space
&33; Exclamation mark
&34; Quotation mark
&35; Number sign
&36; Dollar sign
&37; Percent sign
&38; Ampersand
&39; Apostrophe
&40; Left parenthesis
&41; Right parenthesis
&42; Asterisk
&43; Plus sign
&44; Comma
&45; Hyphen
&46; Period (fullstop)
&47; Solidus (slash)

Hope that helps!
