"to be able to load from a txt file and display correct the several non latin characters (üöä etc) you need to save the text file as .txt with UTF-8
encoding."
how can i do this so it displays the umlaute?
also does someone know how it is possible to display links in text-scrollers? i need a input txt.file to update news and need to know how i can insert links from there.
what i noticed too is that the standard text-scroller from mx allows the user to delete and edit the text. how can i disable this?
thank you very much for your help
ps: i saved the .txt-file as utf-8 central eurpean format, but still doesnt work in the input text. what do i need to do so it can display the äöü, etc???
To add links to a dynamic .text called into flash, u may need to write that in html format...
They wont be able to edit if u change the text type to Dymamic text, instead of imput text, and if u dont want people to select the text u can uncheck the "selectable" option on the text field propertys/information
I was making a fla to see what was the problem with those latin characters, and i found no problem at all, i made a fla that call an external .txt file and it work just fine with those characters... ill put it in here so u can see. (they dont scroll, u may want to add that )
this is very very very strange. your txt.file allows to be encoded in ansi with non unicode characters.
when i do that with my txt-file it says that the characters could be lost when saving in ansi and i shall press cancel if i dont want to loose em.
yes i attached you the source files that i was using. i dont think the loading txt into swf works locally. you need to upload the files onto a server and make chmod 777 to the txt-file (only!). - read the readme.txt.
but if you only want to have a look in the fla, you can.
