converting dynamic text code to work in flash player 8

Hi

I use this code all the time to import text from a external text file which i can scroll. It doesn't work in flash player 8 though, can anyone convert it so it would work please?

Code:

---

System.useCodepage = true;
LoadVarsText = new LoadVars();
LoadVarsText.load("english.txt");
LoadVarsText.onLoad = function(success) {
        if (success) {
                scroller.htmltext = this.mainContent;
                scrolling = 0;
                frameCounter = 1;
                speedFactor = 3;
        } else {
                trace("not loaded");
        }
};

---

Well I'm not sure why it would work at all...htmltext should be htmlText. Past that there's nothing wrong with it.

thanks that's made the text show up, but the links from the text file don't work for some reason. If i change the publish settings to Flash 6 player they work fine but when it's Flash player 8 the full html code is shown instead?

got it sorted thanks, the text box was set as bold and i forgot that for some reason that always stops it working in flash
