Help with dynaminc textboxes

[davidamos webforumsuser@macromedia.com]

I'm trying to create a button that when clicked will display text in a dynamic textbox. I've tried a lot of different things, but for once trial-and-error isn't working for me. Can someone help?

Thanks a lot,
Dave

in this example, both items are created on the _root timeline.

create a dynamic text box. give it a variable name (ie 'myText'). Create a
button. Put this actionScript on it:

on (release) {
myText = "this is my text";
}

}`¬P
