Masking dynamic text

[djankey]

Why masking dynamic text (with render text as HTML enabled) don't work????

[MyFriendIsATaco]

you must embed the font outlines.

or instead of embedding you can do it via AS:
draw a box, turn it into an mc called "mask";
draw a dynamic html-enabled text box ("textBox") and turn it into an mc with the instance name "maskee".
now add that to a main timeline frame:

maskee.textBox.htmlText="Hi There";
maskee.setMask(mask);

now you can play around with your mask via actionscript, moving it or whatnot...
