  11. Why can't Flash read from an external file?

    I would love it if Flash could read from an external text file. I don't mean reading variables from a text file that reads "var1=hi&var2=goodbye". I mean reading a line from a file and actionscript...

    I've looked around the forums and I am left with a general question: if I use loadvars to load a unicode text file into flash, am I restricted to the default font? Is there any way for me to use...
