HTML embedded in Flash

[J&B]

Hi there,

Got a little issue here. Hope someone can help me out.

I want to read an entire html file into a variable, but with out using the
"variable=" in the html file. The problem is, there are ampersands in the
HTML file and the movie thinks it should see this as a separation of
variables :-(.

Is there a way to read the entire file into a variable or should i work
another way around to show the HTML in a textbox?

Anyone please?

Thanks,


Jacques

You could try encoding the special characters according to this table:

If you do not specify a variable, Flash can't know where to put the
loaded stuff, so you have a problem here. Perhaps you could put the
"variable = " text inside comment marks in your html file, and strip the
ending comment mark out in flash?
