embed swf into html text field

[jefargrafx]

anyone know if this can be done, and if not how do we ask macrodia to do so.

I'm putiing together a possible project for a client and they would like to display html within text field on page, okay, but every now and then they like to display an inline graphic, (screen shot, arrow, and icons).

I know that html text field will only text of html

text= my text or
text= <b>my text</b>

if we could include

text=<b>my inserted swf</b>add code for object embed

anyone ever think of this? jef

That's why the scrollpane exists. You can include pictures, movie clips, external .swfs & text in the scrollpane, although you can't still to this day, import a full html page in Flash. Regards,

ooookay!

one step more,

so I create a mc that has a text field that loads html content for a server, then I set the text field to autosize, and then I onEnterFrame get the height of the textfield and place a graphic (as an swf) in a n empty clip at the bottom of the text field (seperate object), (reguadless of how high the text field is)...cool

but, how do I dynamiclly change the height of the scrollpane to change based on what's it it?

let's say two paragraphs (in one MC) and a screen cap jpeg (converted to swf in another MC).

let me know

and oh buy the way, thanks a gain, old, you are always a great help jef
