    Default Return Line Number of text in a textfield?

    Can the line numbers of the text containing a special character be retrieved?

    e.g.
    text in a textfield:

    #line 1
    line 2
    line 3
    #line 4
    line 5
    line 6

    any actionscript can return "1" & "4"?

    tks very much in advance for any help!
