I have a problem. I want to load a text file with some basic HTML code. The only thing stands in the way: caching. If I change the text file, it still stays the same on the flash movie. Of course if I visit the text file, the flash movie will have to new version! Help me! Thanks in advance.

Are you talking about viewing it on the web? Are you updating the text file in flash?

The text file is separate, and is edited without going through Flash at all. It is going to be viewed.

Try loading the text file from flash and add a variable to the end, like so: LoadVariablesNum ("textfile.txt?1", 0)
This will make the server look for a newer version of the file, and prevent the cacheing. You can go to the Macromedia site and search for "preventing cache" and you'll get three results/methods on accomplishing this, including to methods involving meta tags in your host HTML file.
Good luck!
Oh, and open a new window and refresh then, sometimes it doesn't refresh if you try it in the same window (even if you press Ctrl-F5 or Shift-F5 in Netscape).
