Displaying dynamic text in a movie clip

[Hu4ley]

hi there,

I have been trying to solve this issue for ages but with no luck... hopefully someone knows the answer?

I have a movie with a main stage movieclip... within this stage movieclip I have another contact movieclip...In this I have a flash php mailer which i want to animate down on button press. The problem is that the dynamic text fields for the movieclip dont show up when i publish the movie????

Does the contact form have to be on the main timeline and not in movieclips? Is there a way around this? Does anyone have a solution to this?

Hopefully someone can help

Do you use any masks? if you use a mask over a dynamic textfield it will not show up unless you embed the font. Otherwise I would say that your target paths are off.

Have you checked the "show border around text" button?

Does'nt it just show up, or doesn't it funktion too? I mean can you click in the InputText area and type?
