    adding pictures to text box

    I am trying to figure out if it is possible to add pictures in a dynamic text box. The text I have is scrolling with the tracklisting for an album, I want to place a picture of the album cover next to the text, but also want it to move with the text when it is scrolled. is this possible? if so, how?
    thanks.

    MX only or MX2004?

    Have you tried a scrollpane?

    mx 2004
    no, I haven't tried that yet, I already have the scroll bar set up, would I have to use the scroll pane on a different layer?
    I haven't used the scrollpane before.

    I'm not on MX2004, where contrary to MX only, you can set images in the AS2.0 Text Area component... But if your using a textfield and an AS1.0 scrollbar, then you can forget about inserting pictures in the textfield, and you would have to use a scrollpane, where you can have a mixture of whatever.

    thanks, so with a scrollpane you can just add whatever you want, pictures and text?

    If you're talking about AS1.0 components, you could allways check this...

    Or #14 here, for MX2004 components...
