    Unhappy Scrolling text only scrolls halfway down. Hmmm..

    greetings, smarter people than me....

    I've created a box with scrolling text inside (a letter). However, when scrolling down, it suddenly stops, as if I hadn't made something big enough. I'm just not sure what that "thing" is.

    You can see the strange phenomenon (or example of my inexperience) right here:
    http://www.ireallyshouldbewriting.co...ut_inwood.html

    My .fla file is here: http://www.ireallyshouldbewriting.co...lling_test.fla

    My .swf file is here:
    http://www.ireallyshouldbewriting.co...lling_test.swf

    and the HTML doc is here:
    http://www.ireallyshouldbewriting.co...ling_test.html

    Of course, I'm working on a deadline because I'm trying to raise money but don't want to send out the URL if the site makes me look like a ninny.

    does anyone know what mistake I've made?

    THANK YOU, I really appreciate any help.
